Linguistic data in contrastive studies

This paper argues for using authentic data not only as an empirical basis for linguistic generalizations but also for exemplification purposes in monolingual and particularly in bi- and multilingual contrastive studies. It shows that parallel data extracted from the available parallel corpora can - after enrichment with semantic-functional information while maintaining the available contextual, register-related and linguistic information - serve as a perfect data source for multilingual exemplification. Moreover, the analysis of semantic-functionally equivalent parallel sequences allows the investigation and exemplification of similarities and differences in how different languages express similar meaning from both a semasiological and an onomasiological perspective.
