創(chuàng)建時(shí)間：1970年代初

創(chuàng)建單位：英國(guó)Lancaster大學(xué)和挪威Oslo大學(xué)以及Bergen大學(xué)

規(guī)模層級(jí)：100萬(wàn)詞次

基本情況：研究當(dāng)代英國(guó)英語(yǔ)，與美國(guó)英語(yǔ)對(duì)比，使用了TAGIT系統(tǒng)，以統(tǒng)計(jì)方式建立換算幾率矩陣，提高標(biāo)注正確率。

The Lancaster-Oslo/Bergen Corpus (LOB) was compiled by researchers in Lancaster, Oslo and Bergen. It consists of one million words of British English texts from 1961. The texts for the corpus were sampled from 15 different text categories. Each text is just over 2,000 words long (longer texts have been cut at the first sentence boundary after 2,000 words) and the number of texts in each category varies (see table below). Further information about the texts can be found in the LOB manual (external link).

This corpus is the British counterpart of the Brown Corpus of American English, which contains texts printed in the same year so that comparison between both varieties could be made.
