| contents | What Constitutes a Unit of Analysis in Language? Pernilla Danielsson Lengua y Literatura Over the last decade, the study of multi-word units has become increasingly popular and now these units seem to have reached a status where they cannot be ignored. This paper should be seen as a recapituation of the discussion around multi-word units, especially focusing on corpus evidence of such units and what is perceived to be relevant findings. An unsupervised method for extracting multi-word units from corpora is presented and the findings examined. However, rather than evaluating the results, this article will raise the question of what constitutes a 'good' multi-word unit? The article does not claim to give any conclusive answers but perhaps instead posing a few relevant questions. 2007 artículo científico 1615-3014 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=664573582002 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=6645 Linguistik online application/pdf Universität Bern Linguistik online (Suiza) Num.2 Vol.31 |
