国际英语语料库是一个独特的语言学和社会语言学项目。完成后，它将由15个或更多平行的英语口语语料库组成，这些语料库来自英语为主要第一语言或官方第二语言的国家。第一部分介绍了ICE项目和一个调查高级英语学习者写作的子项目。第二部分详细介绍了语料库的设计，语音和写作的标记系统，ICE标记集和分析方案，以及为自动标记和分析以及检索词汇、语法和社会语言信息而开发的软件包。第三部分讨论了语料库编制中的问题，新西兰、东非和香港的团队的经验就是一个例子。最后，第四部分讨论了为语料库设想的一些应用：语言学、社会语言学和自然语言处理方面的研究；教学、语言规划以及第二语言国家教学和考试规范的建立。
The International Corpus of English is a unique linguistic and sociolinguistic project. When complete it will consist of fifteen or more parallel corpora of spoken English drawn from countries where English is either a majority first language or an official second language. Part I introduces the ICE project and a sub-project that investigates writing by advanced learners of English. Part II describes in detail the design of the corpora, the markup systems for speech and writing, the ICE tagset and parsing scheme, and the software packages that have been developed for automatic tagging and parsing, and for retrieving lexical, grammatical, and sociolinguistic information. Part III discusses problems in compiling the corpora, exemplified by the experience of teams in New Zealand, East Africa, and Hong Kong. Finally, Part IV considers some of the applications envisaged for the corpora: research in linguistics, sociolinguistics and natural language processing; teaching, language planning, and the establishment of norms for teaching and examining in second-language countries.
