The Research Group for Multidimensional Corpus-Based Studies in English (MuStE)

MuStE is a research group at the University of A Coruña, although some researchers from other institutions also collaborate with us. At the same time, the group is a partner of the interuniversity research centre CLAVIER. MuStE members have been developing different projects funded by the University of A Coruña, the Xunta de Galicia, the Spanish Government and other private entities.

MuStE members study the development of the English language from a variety of perspectives, focusing both on language change and language variation from the Middle Ages to present-day English, resorting mainly to empirical research. Our works mix traditional philological knowledge together with new approaches.

Among our main research avenues, the following can be found:

Discourse analysis in the history of English
Language change in English: lexical and semantic change
English morphology and vocabulary
Register variation and syntax
Corpus linguistics and corpus compilation
Discourse and gender
ESP and its evolution
Culturally-sensitive language studies and teaching
(Pseudo)Scientific register

One of the team's major projects is the compilation of the Coruña Corpus of English Scientific Writing, and the development of the Coruña Corpus Tool, CCT, (in collaboration with the IRLab team, department of Computer Science at UDC).

The analysis of language change and variation (within particular periods) entails the study of other fields of knowledge and disciplines not entirely classifiable as corpus linguistics proper. Therefore, some incursions in the History of the English-speaking world, the History of Science and other related areas are necessary.

MuStE members are very active in attending prestigious conferences and publishing.

Emma Lezcano graduated in English Language and Literature at the University of Santiago de Compostela in 1990. From February 1992 to June 2001 she worked as an associate and assistant lecturer in the English Department of the University of A Coruña. Eventually, in June 2001 she obtained a position as tenured Lecturer (with no research duties), which she has been holding so far. She has taught a wide variety of courses, all about different aspects of the English language: Scientific English, Writing techniques, History of the English language and several EFL courses. At the moment she teaches an English Grammar course (mainly syntax) in 4th year and four general English courses for undergraduates. Her main interests have always been related to her teaching subjects, and her research has to do with the fields of English Language, TEFL, applied Linguisics as well as syntax, from a synchronic and diachronic point of view. She is writing a PhD dissertation under the supervision of Drs. Teresa Fanego and Elena Seoane from the University of Santiago. The topic of her dissertation is the study of relativization strategies in the Early Modern period and the data have been taken from the Helsinki Corpus.

She has also been a keen contributor to many academic activities organized at the University. For example, she has participated in the organization of several conferences, like the 7th SEDERI Conference and the first three editions of the International Conference of English Philology at the University of A Coruña.

Within her interest in English Language and EFL, she is actively involved in the convergence process in Higher Education and participated in the ECTS pilot project promoted by the ACSUG (Agency for Quality Assurance in the Galician University System). Likewise, she is currently one of the Academic Coordinators of the University Language Center. She is also in charge of the coordination of research activities on Applied Linguistics in the Research Group for Multidimensional Corpus-Based Studies in English (MuStE).

Nuria Bello-Piñón obtained an MA in English Language and Literature from the University of A Coruña in 2004. She is currently carrying out her PhD research in English Historical Linguistics with a dissertation on the processes of borrowing and code-switching in Scientific English from the 18th and 19th centuries. This dissertation is focused on the analysis of samples belonging to the disciplines of astronomy and philosophy written in the period of Late Modern English.

Her main research interests are borrowing as a process of lexicon enlargement in the History of English, processes resulting from language contact, such as code-switching, etymology, genre/text-type taxonomy and the diachronic development of scientific English writing.

From october 2007 to february 2009, Nuria also assisted Dr. Isabel Moskowich in teaching her monograph on English Language Issues (undergraduate, 2nd year). In addition, Nuria assisted Dr. Begoña Crespo from January to June 2009 in teaching her monograph on English Etymology (undergraduate, 4th year) respectively.

Research

Funded research projects

Between 1997 and 2003 the group received funding from the University of A Coruña (through its Vicerrectorado de Investigación) and the Autonomous Government of Galicia for research on English Medieval Dialects and the Fit-Technique (PR-404A PROY 99-145).

MuStE members have also participated in several research projects funded by the Spanish Ministry of Education and Culture and by the Automomous Government of Galicia from 1991 to the present. These projects dealt with variation and language change, DGICYT (PB90-0370); Verbal idioms in the history of English, DGES (PB96-0955); Prepositional constructions in the history of English, DGES (BFF 2000-0492); Collocations and technical English, HUM 2005-00-562/FIL.

The group has received funding from 2003 to carry on the compilation of the Coruña Corpus (Read more) and associated research on English scientific writing between the 17th and 19th centuries. The University of A Coruña and the Autonomous Government of Galicia (PGIDIT03PXIB10402PR; PGIDIT07PXIB104160PR) have provided funding for this research until 2010.

MuStE also receives some extra funding from the Autonomous Government, Xunta de Galicia, Consellería de Educación e Coordenación Universitaria (2007/000145-0) and the Spanish Ministry of Science (2008-2011).

The Autonomous Government of Galicia funded another project on scientific discourse and women, entitled Discurso científico e muller: contexto social e variación na lingua inglesa (1700-1930) (10 PXIB 167 061 PR) from 2010 to 2013.

During the period 2014-2016 the group carried out the compilation of CHET (Corpus of History English Texts) and CECheT (Corpus of English Chemical Texts), funded by the Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness (grant number FFI2013-42215-P) within its National Programme for excelence in Scientific and Technical Research.

During the period 2017-2019, some of MuStE members together with some external collaborators have been completing CHET and CECheT as well as selecting samples for CETeL (Corpus of English Texts on Language) with funding for the same National Programme for excelence in Scientific and Technical Research (FFI2016-75599-P).

Some Muste members have also worked in the teaching project “Development of the interdisciplinary master program on Computational Linguistics at Central Asian UniverSitieS / CLASS” funded by the “Erasmus+ Key Action 2 – Cooperation for Innovation and the Exchange of Good Practices – Capacity Building in the Field of Higher Education” for the period October 2017-October 2021.

The funding granted by the Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities (grant number PID2019-105226GB-I00) for the three years from June 2020 to May 2023 has been devoted to finishing CETeL and CECheT, and starting the compilation of CETePh (Corpus of English Texts on Physics).

From September 2023 to August 2026, we will face the completion of CETeL, work on CETePh and start the compilation process of CEGeT thanks to the funding received from the Spanish Research Agency (AEI), grant number PID2022-136500NB-I00.

Coruña Corpus

The Coruña Corpus of English Scientific Writing

The Coruña Corpus of English Scientific Writing is one of the projects currently being carried out in the University of A Coruña (Spain) by the Research Group for Multidimensional Corpus-based Studies in English (MuStE). The team is in the process of creating a corpus that can be used for the diachronic study of scientific discourse from most linguistic levels and thereby contribute to the study of the historical development of English for specific purposes. At the same time, we believe that the Coruña Corpus is an excellent tool for the study of the scientific register/style at particular moments in history: it offers the researcher the chance to analyse how this "Specific English" behaves from a synchronic point of view.

The compilation of the Coruña Corpus has been and is still governed by some of the most common parameters used in Corpus Linguistics, namely, external criteria for the delimitation of dates, sampling techniques, number of words per sample, etc.

Many pilot studies have already proved the utility of the Coruña Corpus.

The UNESCO classification of the fields of Science and Technology (International Standardisation of Statistics on Science and Technology, UNESCO 1978, 1988) has provided a starting point for text and discipline selection as we intend to include texts from all or most of these categories.

The Coruña Corpus of English Scientific Writing (CC) is, therefore, a specialised corpus covering several different scientific disciplines. It is divided in subcorpora depending on domain or discipline. From the start of the project in 2004 it was designed to contain 10,000-word samples (at a rate of two per decade and discipline) of scientific works published between 1700 and 1900 and that had been directly written in English by English-speaking authors.

In order to avoid repetitions of patterns caused by idiosyncrasies of authors, one of the principles of the CC is to include only one sample per author in the whole corpus, even when some of them were certainly prolific in different fields of knowledge.

All the subcorpora in the CC share the same compilation principles, structure and mark-up and have been edited in XML following TEI conventions to facilitate contrastive studies. Similarly, they are all formed by a multi-field indexed textual repository which is used by the information retrieval platform accompanying them (Coruña Corpus Tool, CCT). This index allows searches using different criteria contained not only in the samples but also in the metadata files with information both about authors and texts.

Compilation has been carried out always following the same sampling criteria (see Crespo and Moskowich, 2010, CETA in the Context of the Coruña Corpus, Literary and Linguistic Computing, 25/2: 153-164). This includes preserving and representing certain special characters and symbols which can be seen when using the CCT.

Subcorpora in the Coruña Corpus

CETA (Corpus of English Texts on Astronomy) came out in 2012 accompanied by a book containing both works on methodological aspects as well as some pilot studies.

The team has also been working on the subject matter of Philosophy to compile CEPhiT (Corpus of English Philosophy Texts) whose compilation is detailed here and which was released in March 2016 together with a book.

From 2019, both CETA and CEPhiT, as well as the following subcorpora (CHET, Corpus of History English Texts, and CELiST, Corpus of English Life Sciences Texts, so far) have been publshed in open access.

We are currently finishing CECheT (Corpus of English Chemistry Texts), as well as starting the search for suitable samples relating to diverse aspects of the study of languages and philology for the compilation of CETeL (Corpus of English Texts on Language) in the near future.

Corpus of English Philosophy Texts

The Corpus of English Philosophy Texts (CEPhiT) is the second part of the Coruña Corpus of English Scientific Writing (CC). CEPhiT has been compiled for the description of English Philosophical writing between 1700 and 1900, both from a synchronic and diachronic perspective. As is characteristic of the Coruña Corpus, each text file in CEPhiT is accompanied by a metadata file containing information about the text sampled and its author's sociolinguistic background. Metadata files are also used to select the texts to work with through the Coruña Corpus Tool (CCT).

Corpus of History English Texts

The Corpus of History English Texts (CHET) is the third part of the Coruña Corpus of English Scientific Writing (CC). It has been compiled to represent English History writing in late Modern English (1700-1900), and it can be used to describe such a tradition both from a synchronic and diachronic perspective. As is characteristic of the Coruña Corpus, each text file in CHET is accompanied by a metadata file which provides information about the text sampled and its author's sociolinguistic background. Metadata files can be also used to select the texts to work with through the Coruña Corpus Tool.

Tagged Coruña Corpus

The “light” versions of the subcorpora in the CC are beta versions of the corpora, somewhat incomplete, and only searchable via CQPWeb as they are tagged for POS. No XML or extra information about authors or samples are available and word counts radically differ from the complete versions.

Remember in most cases you must have a CQPWeb account to access. If you do not know how to create an account, click here.

You may also have to ask for permission to access these particular corpora.

CCT latest version

The Coruña Corpus Tool was first released in 2012 when CETA came out (CD-ROM). Since then, it has been often updated and improved. The two more relevant changes occurred in 2019 and 2020 in order to make the application lighter and able to deal with chemical formulae in the search option as both CELiST and CEChET may require this utility. The version to be found in open access will always be the last one.
