Aiming at exemplifying the methodology of learner corpus profiling,
this book describes salient features of Romanian Learner English. As a
starting point, the volume offers a comprehensive presentation of the
Romanian-English contrastive studies. Another innovative aspect of the
book refers to the use of the first Romanian Corpus of Learner
English, whose compilation is the object of a methodological
discussion. In one of the main chapters, the book introduces the
methodology of learner corpus profiling and compares it with existing
approaches. The profiling approach is emphasised by corpus-based
quantitative and qualitative investigations of Romanian Learner
English. Part of the investigation is dedicated to the
lexico-grammatical profiles of articles, prepositions and genitives.
The frequency-based collocation analyses are integrated with error
analyses and extended into error pattern samples. Furthermore,
contrasting typical Romanian Learner English constructions with
examples from the German and the Italian learner corpora opens the
path to new contrastive interlanguage analyses.
