Resumo: Cognitive Semantics studies can provide the connection between linguistic and conceptual models of the world. Language is seen as the means of accessing mental processes in speaker's mind and, more broadly, the worldview and culture of a language community. However, research methods used in Cognitive Semantics studies rely on introspection, and linguists call for incorporation of more objective empirical quantitative methods. These requirements can be met by using corpora. Corpus-based studies involve looking at frequency and usage patterns to make generalizations about norms of language use. Taking up this approach, cognitive linguists would be able to look into non-elicited language data on large scale to reach conclusions about cognitive patterns of a language community. This paper describes how corpus-based approach can be used in Cognitive Semantics research.
