 Welcome back. In this video, I want to show another useful corpus that can be reached via EnglishCorpra.org. For comparisons between British and American English, you can use the COCA and the BNC, as they are both balanced corpora. Note, however, that they differ in size and the genres include it, and that the BNC only contains texts up to 1993, while the COCA is more up-to-date. Another option is the corpus of global web-based English, or short the globe, which contains texts from 20 different countries. Let's demonstrate this, if we type in a word such as rubbish. We get to see the frequency of this word in all 20 varieties. With the globe, differences in the varieties can be identified at a glance, and it is especially useful for doubtful cases, such as the choice of prepositions. We might, for example, want to know whether it's rather in or at school in British and American English. Since we are now only interested in the two standard varieties, we will restrict the query accordingly. In the globe, we can now immediately see that American English prefers in school, whereas in British English, at school, is used more often. So much for the globe, an interesting tool, isn't it? Bye-bye for now, and thanks for your attention.
