• Title:
  The Absolute Phrase in Contemporary English
• Creator:
  Bosch, James Vanden
• Description:
  Until recently it has been difficult to obtain good information about the relative freąuency of the absolute phrase in spoken and written English. With a POS-tagged corpus like the ICE-GB, however, it is possible to use extraction formulas to find absolute phrases in the ICE-GB, a million-word corpus of contemporary English. In this study, I describe the re- sults of that corpus work, especially in terms of relative distribution by genre.
