| Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
This project resulted in the creation of a large-scale corpus-based academic multi-word unit list tailored for language learners who aim to improve their academic English. It was also specifically tailored for Japanese learners with over 5,000 academic phrases and example sentences translated into Japanese.
The results were made freely available as a website (https://enho.short.gy/2p3R0J), as an Android and Apple smartphone app (Academic English Phrases), and as auto-suggest Microsoft Word plug-in called "Academic English Auto-Suggest."
