Hong Kong Engineering Corpus
The Hong Kong Engineering
Corpus (HKEC) is an educational and research resource that is publicly
available via the website of the Research Centre for Professional
Communication in English (RCPCE)
http://www.engl.polyu.edu.hk/RCPCE/ to benefit engineering
professionals, academics and students locally and
internationally. It is available to users free of charge and
is not used for any commercial purposes.
The
HKEC is compiled for users to learn more about the language of the
engineering industry, in particular the study of the patterns of use of
specific words and phrases. The HKEC corpus searches display
only short segments of texts (12 words either side of the word(s) being
studied), and therefore the complete texts contained in the HKEC are
not available to the user to either read in their entirety or to
download.
