随着第二语言（L2）语料库研究进入第三个十年，计算技术和语料库创建的创新促进了课堂上前所未有的真实语言，包括非英语母语者（NNSs）。应用语言学家包括Douglas Biber， Ken Hyland, John Swales, Rod Ellis, Susan Conrad， Eli Hinkel和Sylviane Granger，使用语料库在期刊文章和书籍格式中广泛研究了各种书面环境（例如，学校论文，标准化测试/能力测试以及实验室或研究报告）的NNS写作，仅举几例。尽管有这些令人印象深刻的贡献，我们在英语口语L2语域的知识方面仍然存在差距，即使是那些对NNSs来说非常重要的知识。例如，主要通过对学习者表现的评估，对课堂学习者演讲和面对面的NNSs访谈进行了定性和定量研究。然而，对这些寄存器进行广泛的基于语料库的分析的数量仍然相对较少。考虑到这些口语学习技能在高风险的情况下是必不可少的，比如研究生入学，英语环境下的工作面试，或者像托福（英语作为外语的测试）或雅思（国际英语语言测试系统）这样的能力测试，进一步系统地研究口语学习者的语言，特别是将语料库作为研究方法的一部分，当然是有用的和值得的。
As second language (L2) corpus studies expand into their third decade, innovations in computational technology and corpus creation have facilitated unprecedented access to authentic language in the classroom, including among non-native speakers (NNSs) of English. NNS writing across various written contexts (e.g., school essays, standardized tests/proficiency tests, and laboratory or research reports) has been studied extensively in both journal article and book formats using corpora by applied linguists including Douglas Biber, Ken Hyland, John Swales, Rod Ellis, Susan Conrad, Eli Hinkel, and Sylviane Granger, to name only a few. Despite these impressive contributions, gaps still remain in our knowledge of spoken English L2 registers, even those that are quite important for NNSs to master. Classroom learner speech and face-to-face NNSs interviews, for example, have been researched both qualitatively and quantitatively, primarily by utilizing the assessment of learner performance. However, extensive corpus-based analyses of these registers are still relatively few in number. Given that these oral learner skills are essential in high-stakes situations, such as admission to graduate programs, job interviews in English-speaking settings, or proficiency tests like the TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language) or IELTS (International English Language Testing System), it is certainly useful and worthwhile to further investigate oral learner language systematically, and especially with corpora as part of the research methodology.
