COBUILD (Collins Birmingham University International Language Database) is a specialized linguistic project that originated in the early 1980s. It focuses on creating dictionaries and language resources based on real-world examples of how English is used in context. The COBUILD project was initiated by a team at the University of Birmingham in the UK and is known for its innovative approach to dictionary-making. One of COBUILD's most prominent outputs is the "COBUILD English Dictionary," which was first published in 1987.
