Research and Development Unit for English Studies (RDUES)

Description

The Research and Development Unit for English Studies (RDUES), based in the School of English at Birmingham City University, is a corpus linguistic research group comprising of corpus linguists, software engineers and statisticians. While alternative branches of linguistics rely on cherry-picked or invented examples of language use, corpus linguistics uncovers real-world linguistic patterns and trends evidenced in a large-scale digital collection of texts (a ‘corpus’).
