A linguistic method for using the Web consists in making requests on strings of characters as long as possible between quotation marks, then confronting the obtained results with other sources. One knows that the Web is “transitory” and is “varying greatly in value”; nonetheless using this method will be efficient. Useful requests are made through classes of objects and sets of predicates (Gross & Guenthner 2002). Comparing frequencies is a good means of evaluating the respective vitality of concurrent terminological phrases and their social uses (official, technical, professional or journalistic texts). So neologisms and archaisms become obvious. If terminology ’s aim is to work on specialized names, professional contents and linguistic knowledge about terms, the Web is a very good tool to validate technical translations, provided philological precautions.

Nowadays, the Web is a common tool for students searching information about the subjects taught in the different university courses. Although this is a good tool for the first rapid knowledge, a more deep study is usually demanded. After many years of teaching one course about ceramic and composite materials, the authors, used the Bologna reformulation of the mechanical engineering course to introduce new teaching methodologies based on continuous evaluation. One of the main innovations is one practical work that comprises the study of a recent ceramic scientific article, using all the actual available tools, elaboration of a scientific report, present the work and participate in a debate. With this innovative teaching method the enrolment of the students was enhanced with a better knowledge about the ceramics subject and the skills related with the CDIO competences.

Speaking is a way for humans to communicate with others using language. The ability to speak according to the speaker is very diverse. In general, language skills improve as intelligence improves. Therefore, it is known that the analysis of a speaker’s utterances is a good tool to evaluate the intellectual maturity of the speaker. Until recently, these evaluations have been done manually based on the experience of a handful of experts, but this approach is not only time consuming and costly, but also highly subjective. In this paper, we propose a Korean automatic speech analysis system based on Natural Language Processing (NLP) and web service to solve this problem. For this study, we constructed a web service based on Django to respond to the requests of various users. When a user delivered a transcription file of utterances to the server via the web, the server analyzed the speech ability of the speaker based on various indicators. The server compared the transcription file with the language ability indicators of persons of the same age as the speaker and displayed the result immediately to the user. In this study, we used KoNLPy, a Korean language-processing tool. The automatic speech analysis service analyzed not only the overall language ability of the speaker but also individual domains such as sentence completion ability and vocabulary ability. In addition, a faster and immediate service was made possible without sacrificing accuracy as compared to human analysis.

Since the Web by far represents the largest public repository of natural language texts, recent experiments, methods, and tools in the area of corpus linguistics often use the Web as a corpus. For applications where high accuracy is crucial, the problem has to be faced that a non-negligible number of orthographic and grammatical errors occur in Web documents. In this article we investigate the distribution of orthographic errors of various types in Web pages. As a by-product, methods are developed for efficiently detecting erroneous pages and for marking orthographic errors in acceptable Web documents, reducing thus the number of errors in corpora and linguistic knowledge bases automatically retrieved from the Web.
