  Demonstrates how corpus-based research can advance the understanding of linguistic phenomena in a given language. By presenting a detailed analysis of collocations and idioms in a digital corpus of English and German, this volume shows how the use of collocations and idioms has changed over time, and suggests possible triggers for this change.
