Covid-Ling es una línea de divulgación que persigue contestar preguntas de interés social sobre la crisis del coronavirus mediante micro-estudios basados en la linguística de corpus y los ‘big data’. Por ejemplo, nuestras tendencias de búsqueda de términos como “coronavirus” en internet reflejan el interés y la preocupación de la sociedad. Esta divulgación se enmarca dentro de la unidad científica de excelencia IberLab (http://iberlab.ugr.es), y surge tras el impulso de la Universidad de Granada a fomentar investigación sobre el coronavirus desde todos los ámbitos científicos.

Goal: The goal of the ANACOR research project is to understand how late bilinguals (=learners of a second language, L2) use anaphoric forms to refer to their antecedents in previous discourse. We use large corpus data, as well as experimental data, to investigate this in several language combinations.
Our corpora are being collected online via the web portal LEARNERCORPORA.COM:
●CEDEL2 corpus (Corpus Escrito del Español como L2), which contains data from L1 English/German/Dutch/Greek/Japanese learners of L2 Spanish, as well as a comparable Spanish native subcorpus. CEDEL2 (version 1) is already available online at cedel2.learnercorpora.com.
●COREFL (Corpus of English as a Foreign Language), which contains data from L1 Spanish/German learners of L2 English, as well as a comparable English native subcorpus.
The two major project goals are (i) to better understand the mechanisms underlying the language of adult bilingual learners of a second language (in relation to anaphora resolution); (i) to create new electronic resources (corpora) like COREFL and enlarge existing corpora like CEDEL2 to better undertand anaphora resolution in SLA.
Methods: Psycholinguistics, Corpora
