本文讨论了一个个人学术写作语料库的构建和分析。本文从学术写作领域和学术写作语料库在学术写作领域中的地位出发,探讨了如何构建“个人语料库”,沿着了“文本”的质与量问题,以及个人语料库建设中可能出现的问题。本文还提出了一个背景,一般的“参考”语料库对学术写作的功能可以衡量,同时承认,访问,或生产,这样一个潜在的大型语料库将一般超出了许多研究人员感兴趣的小规模分析的手段。使用索引器,一些有限的词汇,句法和语篇特征的分析,然后提出一个潜在的个人档案可能会出现。本文最后讨论了分析自己的写作所面临的局限性,但建议,尽管有局限性,有价值的见解可以获得尊重一个人的个人语言意识。
This paper discusses the construction and analysis of a corpus of an individual's own academic writing. Following an examination of the area of academic writing and the position of academic writing corpora within it, the paper discusses how a "personal corpus" might be put together, along with issues of the necessary quality and quantity of "text", and problems which may arise in the construction of a personal corpus. The paper also proposes a background, general "reference" corpus against which features of academic writing may be measured, whilst admitting that accessibility to, or production of, such a potentially large corpus will generally be beyond the means of many researchers interested in small-scale analyses. Using concordancers, some limited analyses of lexical, syntactic and discourse features are then presented to show how a potential personal profile might emerge. The paper concludes with a discussion of the limitations facing the analysis of one's own writing, but suggests that, despite limitations, worthwhile insights can be gained in respect of one's personal language awareness.
