Abstract

This special issue of the Nordic Journal of English Studies comprises papers from the symposium Languages in Contrast held in Lund 5 December 2014 in celebration of the 20th anniversary of the Nordic Parallel Corpus Project which led to the English-Norwegian Parallel Corpus (ENPC), the Swedish-English Parallel Corpus (ESPC) and the Finnish-English Contrastive Corpus Studies Project (FECCS). When they were first compiled, the parallel corpora opened up new possibilities for empirical, corpus-based questions about language relationships and translations (see Johansson 2007, 2012: 1).
