Corpus of Global Web Based English (GloWbE)
Listed in UC Berkeley Library Dataverse
The corpus of Global Web-based English (GloWbE; pronounced "globe") is unique in the way that it allows you to carry out comparisons between different varieties of English.
Description
GloWbE is related to other corpora from English-Corpora.org, which are the most widely used corpora of English, and which offer unparalleled insight into variation in English. GloWbE contains about 1.9 billion words of text from twenty different countries.
This makes it about 100 times as large as other corpora like the International Corpus of English, and it allows for many types of searches that would not be possible otherwise. In addition to this online interface, you can also download full-text data from the corpus. Click on any of the links in the search form to the left for context-sensitive help.
