“…While a corpus provides a qualitative and quantitative sampling of the data according to the frequency and coherence, in general, in corpus based studies, corpora data is generally used to investigate a theory or a hypothesis, and in this regard, corpus is accepted as a method in research (McEnery & Hardie, 2012). Considering the corpora data, there are researches whose subject is directly language (Aksan, et al, 2017;Dang & Webb, 2014;Göz, 2003;Ölker, 2011;Özkan, 2012) and researches in which the obtained data are used for educational purposes (Klimova, 2014;Lozano & Mendikoetxea, 2013;Stoykova, 2014).…”

This study aims at specifying cultural words in teaching Turkish as a foreign language according to their proficiency levels (A1/2, B1/2, and C1/2) and analyzing the difference between the proficiency levels of these cultural words in terms of their frequency. For this purpose, a cultural corpus of 112.350 tokens in total has been created based on written and oral cultural texts. In this cultural corpus, nouns and verbs in the first 2000 in terms of their frequency have been compared with nouns and verbs in the most common 2000 Turkish words, and nouns and verbs that are not in the most common 2000 Turkish words have been marked as cultural words. Then, the cultural words have been compared with the textbooks used in teaching Turkish as a foreign language. The proficiency levels of their English equivalents in Cambridge Learner's Dictionary and the context in which they are used in the corpus have been checked and listed according to their levels. Finally, the list has been edited according to the opinions of two experts teaching Turkish as a foreign language at university level. The differences in the frequency of cultural words according to their proficiency levels have been analyzed using Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney U tests. Findings show that there is a statistically significant difference between A1 and A2; A2 and B1; B1 and B2; C1 and C2 levels of the cultural words in terms of frequency, whereas there is no significant difference between cultural words at B2 and C1 levels in terms of frequency. In these findings, it has been seen that the most cultural words are at B1 level in terms of number and concept diversity, and it has been concluded that B1 level could be a threshold in the teaching of cultural words.

“…Corpus refers to the scientific sampling and processing large-scale electronic text library, is the basis of corpus linguistics, and is the main resource of empirical language research methods. Since the emergence of computerized corpus, corpus linguistics rapid development, comparative study of the use of the language corpus, language ontology research has achieved fruitful results [3,4]. Becker created the world's first translational English corpus, proposed parallel corpus, multilingual corpus and comparable corpus can be found and identified by conventional methods difficult semantic features found in study of the text style, language habits, such as redundancy of language, vocabulary co-occurrence, the extent of regulation, coherent form, syntactic patterns, even punctuation usage characteristics, and to help translate to choose corresponding translation strategies.…”

Classic into English is an important means to promote the national culture, to promote the exchange and integration of Chinese and Western cultures, to carry forward the Chinese culture. Translation corpus research developed rapidly in recent years and provided a new approach and ideas for classic into English. For the difficult problems about corpus building, this paper is divided into four aspects: First, Oracle database system architecture and its advantages; Second, the conceptual structure design on database with E-R diagram; third, according to the logical structure design principles on database designed each table structure; fourth, created a corpus system database and completed the relevant settings. Contents of this paper filled the blank for translation corpus and have an important role in improving the English translation level of Chinese classics works and translation speed.

Classical Chinese is an important carrier of ancient Chinese culture, has great cultural value and education value, classical Chinese teaching is an important part of Chinese teaching and learning. Build high school classical Chinese teaching corpus is promote the classical Chinese teaching information and is the effective means to solve the current predicament. In this paper, the research content mainly includes four aspects: one is corpus base, including text feature extraction and classification of corpus, optimization design and the rule base to establish; Second, analyzes the present situation and existing problems of high school classical Chinese teaching; Three is that based on SQL Server database management system, designs the corpus system constructed by six, the logic of a relational table structure; Four is designed by the corpus management, query statistics and user management and so on three big modules of the system function.
