The Meiji Summer School in English Linguistics and Corpus Linguistics
2 September 2024
In late June a large contingent of students from one of Japan’s top Universities, Meiji University in Tokio (https://www.meiji.ac.jp/cip/english/), attended a specially designed Summer School in English Linguistics and Corpus Linguistics, organised by the Survey of English Usage (SEU). This two-day course featured sessions taught by Bas Aarts, Sean Wallis and Guyanne Wilson on various topics, including using corpora for syntactic studies, corpus methodology, statistics, and World Englishes. The SEU has a long a fruitful relationship with Meiji University, which we hope will extend well into the future.
