Abstract

The goal of our research in general and of this study in particular is to develop useful tools for the study of the English by our students in agriculture.
The study of common weed names is part of a vast study of English agricultural terminology meant to identify linguistic algorithms in the study of English for Special Purposes (ESP). The research has been limited to a single corpus – that of a comprehensive English language dictionary.
