Isi artikel

Recent research in corpus linguistics has suggested that our intuitions about language are too unreliable to be used as a basis for prescription, whereas consulting 'the evidence' in a corpus will be much more reliable. This article begins by revisiting the debate on linguistics and prescription, with particular reference to corpus linguistics. It then describes an encounter with a large corpus, and concludes that intuitive prescription, far from being a disreputable activity, is an essential and desirable aspect of language teaching which does not depend on corpus evidence for its integrity.
