O Helpers é um projeto de ensino de língua inglesa promovido pelo Projeto COMET (Corpus Multilíngue para Ensino e Tradução). Trata-se de um curso de apoio paralelo às aulas curriculares, que é oferecido, gratuitamente, aos alunos de graduação com habilitação em língua inglesa. Seu objetivo é aperfeiçoar o domínio da língua para que os alunos possam acompanhar as aulas com mais facilidade.

For example and such as
Hey you!
More questions in our classes:
One of our students asked if we could substitute for example for such as (to avoid repetition). Our Helper, Thaís, did the following search at COCA:
Here, you can see that she selected the Academic genre (on the left), chose the COMPARE function and typed such and for in the search bar. This led her to the result you can find in the main box.
She highlighted what she was looking for.
What conclusions can you reach by assessing such results? Has our student´s question been answered?
Looking forward to hearing from you!

In one of our last classes, a student raised the following: the verb admit has to be followed by the pronoun that when it introduces a clause.
Here´s what we found at COCA:
This, with an analysis of some concordance lines (which you can find by doing the same search as shown above), confirms what our student said.
More questions? Feel free to ask!
