These imply the negligence of general corpora representing Malaysian English with the exception of two ongoing corpora—International Corpus of English-Malaysia (ICE-M’sia) and Malaysian Academic Spoken English Corpus (Siti Aeisha & Hajar, 2014). Davies and Fuchs (2015) stressed that these corpora are created aiming to investigate certain trends by individual researchers which are not able to cater to researchers of varieties of English, in this case Malaysian English. |
