3. Introduction
Linguistics
the study of human language, including subjects such as phonology,
morphology, syntax, semantics, lexicon, sociolinguistics, and
psycholinguistics

4. Computational Linguistics
The interdisciplinary field which involves both linguistics and
computer science, and is concerned with automatising the analysis of
text and speech corpora, developing precise models of grammars
and lexica which can be processed automatically.

5. Corpus Linguistics
Corpus linguistics is the study of language as expressed
in samples (corpora) or "real world" text. This method
represents a digestive approach to deriving a set of
abstract rules by which a natural language is governed or
else relates to another language ..

6. Corpus
A collection of written and/or spoken language stored on
a computer and used for language research and writing
dictionaries
