[EN]The use of large corpora in the study of languages is a well established tradition. In the same vein, scholarship is also well represented in the case of the study of corpora for making grammars of languages. This is the case of the COBUILD grammar and dictionary and the case of the Longman Grammar of Spoken and Written English. This means that corpora have been analyzed in order to identify patterns in languages that can be later practised by learners following those patterns described and exemplified with real instances.

Corpora—large collections of written and/or spoken text stored and accessed electronically—provide the means of investigating language that is of growing importance academically and professionally. Corpora are now routinely used in the following fields: The production of dictionaries and other reference materials; The development of aids to translation; Language teaching materials; The investigation of ideologies and cultural assumptions; Natural language processing; and The investigation of all aspects of linguistic behaviour, including vocabulary, grammar and pragmatics.

Starting with a description of the software and hardware used for corpus linguistics in the late 1980s to early 1990s, this contribution discusses difficulties faced by the software designer when attempting to allow users to study text. Future human-machine interfaces may develop to be much more sophisticated, and certainly the aspects of text which can be studied will progress beyond plain text without images. Another area which will develop further is the study of patternings involving not just single words but word-relations across large stretches of text.
Le collocazioni in traduzione e interpretazione tra italiano e francese: Uno studio su eptic_01_2011

This dissertation aims at investigating differences in phraseological patterns in translated and interpreted language, on the basis of the intermodal corpus EPTIC_01_2011 and focusing on Italian and French. First of all, an overview is offered of the main studies and theories about corpus linguistics and collocations: the notion of corpus is defined and a typology (focusing on intermodal corpora) is presented, before moving on to the linguistic phenomenon of collocation and its investigation through corpus linguistics methods. Second, the general structure of EPTIC_01_2011 is presented, including the ways in which its texts have been assembled, edited through ad hoc conventions and enriched with metadata. The methodology proposed by Durrant and Schmitt (2009), slightly edited to fit the present study, has been used to extract and compare noun+adjective/adjective+noun bigrams from a quantitative point of view. A subset of these data have then been extracted and analysed manually. The results of the study are presented through graphs and examples, with an in-depth discussion of the bigrams considered. Lastly, the data collected are analysed and categorised in terms of shifts occurring in translation and in interpreting, potential causes are discussed and ideas for further research and for the development of the EPTIC corpus are sketched.

The aim of this dissertation is to investigate the differences in the phraseological patterns used by Italian and English translators and interpreters through the intermodal corpus EPTIC_01_2011. First, the most important studies and theories about corpus linguistics and collocations are introduced. After defining the notion of “corpus”, the different types of corpora are categorised, giving particular attention to the intermodal one. Then the dissertation focuses on a description of collocations, as defined by the main linguistics scholars, and it describes some attempts to apply corpus linguistics to the study of collocations. Secondly, EPTIC_01_2011 is presented, with a description of its structure and of the text editing process carried out applying specific editing conventions and adding a set of metadata before each text. The analysis of collocation candidate bigrams (adjective+noun/noun+adjective) from a quantitative point of view, was conducted applying a methodology adapted from Durrant and Schmitt (2009). Qualitative analysis was also performed on a subsection of the data. The results of the study are presented through examples and graphs, giving particular attention to the interpretation of the data analysed from a qualitative perspective. Finally, results are summarised and categorised, and suggestions are made concerning the diverging choices made in translation and interpreting. The final section concentrates on further studies that could be carried out in the future, as well as on suggestions for corpus enlargement.

This research, theoretically founded on Corpus Linguistics and Phraseology, has the purpose of extracting and analyzing general language and specialized collocations in the medical field, taken from a parallel corpus comprised of transcriptions of the TV serial Grey’s Anatomy. Based on this extraction, it is proposed a compilation of a bilingual glossary, so that the referred material can be used by learner translators as well as English language teachers.

O objectivo principal deste ensaio é discutir o interesse crescente que os Estudos da Tradução tem expressado acerca da Lingüística de Corpus e seu importante papel para a investigação do fenómeno tradutório. O ensaio apresenta os primeiros trabalhos na interface entre corpora e tradução e como a disciplina dos Estudos da Tradução de base em corpus evoluiu na última década. Uma atenção mais pontual é dada à noção de estudos em corpus de pequena dimensão e sua influência no campo das pesquisas em tradução no Brasil. Além disso, o ensaio explora como o conceito de representatividade tem recebido definições diferentes nos estudos dos fenómenos tradutórios de base em corpus.

Em Portugal, o turismo é uma actividade económica que gera ganhos significativos e a promoção turística do país no mercado externo assenta cada vez mais na criação de sites multilingues. Este artigo examina um corpus constituído por textos provenientes de sites de Regiões de Turismo de Portugal, em português, e as respectivas traduções para inglês, com o objectivo de demonstrar o modo como os tradutores adicionam informação inexistente no texto original. Através da análise desta característica específica dos sites oficiais traduzidos para promover o destino ―Portugal‖ no mercado externo pretende salientar-se a importância que as estratégias de tradução assumem no marketing do destino turístico, uma vez que a informação adicionada cria uma determinada imagem de uma região. Em termos teóricos e metodológicos, este artigo enquadra-se no âmbito da Linguística de Corpus.
