概要 | This presentation will introduce a new parallel corpus study that has evolved from a unique ESP based course designed to teach both university students and the Kyoto police together. A needs analysis completed in conjunction with the Kyoto Police was the impetus for the current study in order to understand their learning needs. The intended corpus size is between 30,000 and 50,000 words. Through translation and back-translation, the content will represent a variety of written materials used by the police. These include materials referenced by the police when interacting with non-Japanese speakers, materials currently used internally for English training by the police, or materials the police have identified as necessary to have in both languages. Through part-of-speech tagging, the final analyses are intended to identify language patterns, target vocabulary frequency, and collocations specific to the genre of police-English. |
