This review is for NINJAL's (National Institute for Japanese Language and Linguistics here/hereinafter NINJAL) Corpus of Spontaneous Japanese. I would recommend it for advanced learners. A linguistics corpus, the empirical study of languages but database, is used in English language studies of Japanese words to study the language.
What
This is a giant list of words and the bits that make up the words.
Why do you need a giant dictionary? For when you want to look up things in books in your reading journey but dont know where to start because the standard ones are meh. Socio-linguistics (how people use language in culture for our purposes) also touches on what is called the context-sensitive or syntagmatic processes that Japanese uses such as the distinction of Ma's ( 間 | Empty space ) many definitions in English, tatoeba. Lol.
Linguistics What
A very useful tool which we all know is ripe for sociolinguistics learning about Japanese culture, sociopsychology if you below in that pseudo-science, natural language and the beginning stage of national databases for these matters. Not subscribed myself, but I am a part time unpaid cataloguer not a researcher so blegh.
Where
Online at https://clrd.ninjal.ac.jp/csj/en/
Who
NINJAL - National Institute of Japanese Language and Linguistics
NICT - National Institute of Information and Communications Technology
Tokyo Institute of Technology (Nowadays Science Tokyo because they merged some older universities together and screwed over a bunch of research students so boooo.)
When
Available if you have internet.
Why
Becuase it as interesting forays into the linguistical considerations of learning, ie studying a languages sociolinguistics systems which may help with your enunciation depending on which language you are coming from into Japanese.
This can be useful in areas such as lexicography, natural language models, phonology, science, sociology, educational materials, cultural and historical material studies.
