Corpora of texts are used typically to study the structure and function of language. The distribution of various linguistic units, comprising tarts in a corpus are used to make and test hypotheses relevant to different linguistic levels of description. News reports and editorials have been used extensively to populate corpora for studying language, for making dictionaries and for writing grammar books. News reports of financial markets are generally accompanied by time-indexed series of values of shares, currencies and so on, reflecting the change in value over a period of time. A corpus linguistic method for extracting sentiment indicators, e.g. shares going tip or a currency falling down, is presented together with a technique for correlating the quantitative time-series of values with a time series of sentiment indicators. The correlation may be used in the analysis of the movement of shares, currencies and other financial instruments.

The processing of morphologically complex words in a specific speaker group A masked-priming study with Turkish heritage speakers Jacob, Gunnar; Kırkıcı, Bilal (John Benjamins Publishing Company, 2016-01-01) The present study investigates to what extent morphological priming varies across different groups of native speakers of a language. In two masked-priming experiments, we investigate the processing of morphologically complex Turkish words in Turkish heritage speakers raised and living in Germany. Materials and experimental design were based on Kirkici and Clahsen's (2013) study on morphological processing in Turkish native speakers and L2 learners, allowing for direct comparisons between the three groups. E...
The processing of morphologically complex words by developing readers of Turkish: a masked priming study Oğuz, Enis; Kırkıcı, Bilal (2022-11-01) The processing of morphologically complex words has been studied in many languages, leading to a variety of theoretical accounts. Prime type, individual differences, and cross-linguistic effects have emerged as potential factors in morphological processing, but the findings so far have been inconclusive, especially for young children. This study investigated the early stages of morphological processing in Turkish-speaking children using the visual masked priming paradigm. We used different prime conditions ...
The use of verbal morphology in Turkish as a third language: The case of Russian-English-Turkish trilinguals Antonova-Unlu, Elena; Sağın Şimşek, Sultan Çiğdem (SAGE Publications, 2015-06-01) Aims and Objectives: Several studies suggest that third language acquisition (TLA) is marked with complex patterns of language interaction. However, it is not clear yet to what extent multilinguals activate each of their background languages in TLA, as various factors may trigger the activation of one of the previously learnt languages. This study aims to contribute to the discussion by examining the use of verbal morphology in third language (L3) Turkish of Russian-English-Turkish trilinguals. We investiga...
The Second language processing of nominal compounds: a masked priming study Çelikkol Berk, Nurten; Kırkıcı, Bilal; Department of English Language Teaching (2018) The primary purpose of the present study was to understand the workings of the cognitive mechanisms underlying L2 morphological processing, and more particularly, to explore how noun-noun compounds in L2 English are processed by native speakers of Turkish in the earliest stages of word recognition. Furthermore, the study investigated the role of constituent morphemes in the processing of compound words and examined whether or not a compound word primes its first and second constituents equally. The final pu...
The influence of early monolingual dictionaries and word lists on the standardisation of English spelling Sönmez, Margaret Jeanne M. (Walter de Gruyter GmbH, 2001-01-01) This paper aims to ascertain as precisely as possible what direct influence the early monolingual word lists and dictionaries may have had on the standardisation of English spelling. It is based upon research in which a quantitative analysis of the spellings of lemmas from the nine earliest published such lists and dictionaries was made and followed by a comparison of these lemmas and their spellings with the spellings from a manuscript and printed text of appropriate date. These word lists and dictionaries...
