- W1008131036 abstract "This paper introduces a study on variation in the progressive in World Englishes. The main purpose of the study is to shed light on how the progressive is used in varieties other than British or American English, which have been the main focus of previous studies on the progressive. The present data consists of approximately 800,000 words of spontaneous dialogues in a number of comparative corpora, and the data is scrutinized from both syntactic and semantic points of view. This paper focuses on a methodological issue related to the study of the progressive, i.e. whether the number of progressives should be related to the number of words in a corpus or to some other figure available to the researcher. Towards the end of the paper, some preliminary results on the frequency of the progressive are discussed in the light of the previous section on methodology. The results show that there is considerable variation in the frequency of the progressive in World Englishes, and that these results are largely consistent regardless of the method employed. Although some explanations for the differences in the frequency of the progressive are attempted, it is evident that there is a multitude of possible explanations available. The ongoing doctorate study is expected to shed more light on the use of the progressive as regards its frequency, and selected syntactic and semantic elements related to it, as well as the reasons behind the differences found in the present data on World Englishes." @default.
