----------Original Message ----------
I am looking for English corpora suitable for study of punctuation marks.
It should preferably contain originally written material (not
transcribed from speech) on general non-fiction subjects (journalism,
social sciences etc.). Being tagged may also be preferable.
Please email your answers directly to me and I will summarize.
Thanks in advance,
Bilge Say

Suitable choices suggested were Oxford Text Archive (contact email:
ARCHIVE@VAX.OXFORD.AC.UK), Spoken English Corpus, British National
Corpus (contact email: natcorp@oucs.ox.ac.uk) and tagged LOB corpus
(http://www.hd.uib.no/icame.html).
