Abstract

Corpus linguistics has surely secured its position and status in the world
of science nowadays. Its role in linguistic research, and consequently its implications
for the linguistic theory and practice are practically indisputable today. Nevertheless,
what started capturing researchers’ attention in the last decades is the role that corpus
linguistics has in the domain of translation studies and training. In fact, corpus linguistics has extended its influence so much that it is safe to claim that providing proper
training to trainee translators and doing translation in general is inconceivable and
inadmissible without taking full advantage of the benefits of corpora.
The paper aims to take a closer look at the current research done on the role of corpus
linguistics in the sphere of translation studies and translation training by examining
closely some of the most recent and relevant studies which have dealt with this issue recently. More specifically, the aim of the paper is to offer an overview of the most salient
findings and results obtained from these studies, and eventually to draw conclusions as
to how future translators could apply these insights into their practical work in order
to secure their competitiveness in the global labour market.
Key words: corpora, corpus linguistics, translation training
