The meaning function of the case particle ʃi in the Tsuken Island dialect of Japanese considered from the perspective of collocative relations
Satomi Matayoshi, 2010, original scientific article

Abstract: This paper describes the case particle ʃi in the Tsuken Island dialect of Okinawa, Japan. This particle has a similar function to the preposition to in the English language. It is thought that ʃi is equivalent to case particles ni or e in the Japanese standard language, but its origin is not clear. ʃi has not only the function of ni or e, but also one of the functions of Standard Japanese made. It seems that ʃi developed in the Tsuken Island dialect.

Technical terminology in standard terms and conditions of sale : a corpus-based study of high frequency nouns and their collocations
Nataša Gajšt, 2012, original scientific article

Abstract: Technical terminology, which comprises individual words and various kinds of more or less fixed word partnerships, constitutes an important part of professional discourse. A good command of domain specific collocations adds to the proficiency in specialist communication in any domain, including commerce. The aim of this paper is to present the findings of a corpus-based study of the most common collocations of 16 high-frequency nouns in 'standard terms and conditions of sale' as authentic, commerce-related documents. Our research shows that the most frequent nouns form a substantial number of significant collocations which can be considered technical terminology in the field of commerce. In turn, these findings can be used as the basis for designing teaching syllabi and teaching materials for courses in English for commerce and trade.
