Abstract

Corpus has gained its popularity in linguistics over the past five decades,
from the computerized storage of English language in Survey of English
Usage in 1959 to the ongoing development of Corpus of Contemporary
American English. Because of the huge size of actual language data
compiled in corpora, many linguists and language teachers working with
English language have benefited from them in linguistic research and
teaching practice. Up to now, there are innumerable English online
corpora recording data from various genres, modes, and regions as well
as corpus tools to analyze self-compiled corpus. The massive
development of corpora, however, has not been widely discussed among
English language researchers and practitioners in Indonesia, let alone in
English language teaching. Although linguistics and language teaching
are two inseparable and firmly related fields, corpus as a concept and
product of linguistics seems ignored or even avoided. This paper then
aims to review the nature of corpus and how it is used to assist linguistic
analysis. More importantly, this paper discusses another possible
application of corpus, e.g., the use of corpus in teaching language.
Considering the nature and the benefits of using corpora, it is then
important to promote the use of corpus to enhance English language
teaching and learning, either directly in the classrooms or indirectly in
materials development.
Keywords: corpus, big data, language teaching
