    Such a fascinating talk. Thank you very much! I found the specific examples particularly useful (eg. yes+ words, tense and modality in spoken grammar). I've time tagged the talk into sections below for when I come back to listen again!
    0:36 Definition of corpora
    2:35 Spoken vs written discourse
    4:06 frequency lists and insights into vocabulary
    9:44 yes+ words (example of difference between spoken and written vocab use)
    12:30 proficient user perceptions vs evidence from corpora
    13:45 corpora and their contexts and corpus tagging
    19:35 insights into spoken grammar
    22:00 strings of noun phrases (example of difference between spoken and written grammar use)
    25:33 conclusion about insights from frequency
    26:08 explanation of concordances
    27:15 multi-modal corpora
    28:38 smaller more contextualised spoken corpus studies

    Thank you Professor. I was born in Poland and English is my third or fourth language. In my opinion the most English course do not recognize differences between written and spoken English. Even some do not care if it is American English, British English or other English.
