2013 Applying a multidimensional, register-sensitive approach to visualize normalization in translated and non-translated Dutch Interference and normalization in genre-controlled multilingual corpora, Lefer, Marie-Aude and Svetlana Vogeleer (eds.), pp. 43–60 | Article

We want to verify: (i) to what extent normalization is register dependent; (ii) whether… read more
2012 Is translated language more standardized than non-translated language? Using profile-based correspondence analysis for measuring linguistic distances between language varieties. Target 24:2, pp. 203–224 | Article

Additionally, we want to examine whether the use of standard vs. non-standard language can be… read more

We investigate whether this claim is empirically verifiable for a variety of lexical… read more

Different studies have concluded that the use of scientific terminology is one of the factors, which greatly influences the readability of… read more
