Abstract

This paper mainly deals with the application of corpus in distinguishing English synonyms. Traditionally, English learners tend to rely on dictionaries or reference books to distinguish English synonyms, but it turns out that these kinds of books can be of little help. With the revival and the aid of corpus, this problem can be solved easily.
