Summary
This chapter provides an overview of research into L3/Ln that is based on corpus data, and provide the reader with information on publicly available L3/Ln corpora. As both L3/Ln corpus-based research and corpora are quite scarce to date, I devote the better part of this chapter to describing the outcome of a survey I conducted to gather colleagues’ needs and preferences regarding future L3/Ln corpus compilations.
