This paper introduces The PRAYA Corpus, a themed digital corpus of English Language Teaching (ELT) research articles by Indonesians, to enable discourse analysis, genre study, and pedagogical application within multilingual academic settings. Comprising 114 Scopus-indexed publications related to English Language Teaching. The manuscripts were written by Indonesian authors. The corpus represents sub-disciplines such as second language acquisition, classroom pedagogy, and language assessment, which comprise around 821,899 tokens. Metadata includes author affiliations, publication sites, and keywords to enable rich analyses of regional trends in scholarship. The corpus addresses a vital resource deficit in researching Global South scholarly Englishes, namely Indonesian scholars’ borrowing from Anglophone conventions in negotiating linguistic and rhetorical selves. Two design considerations supported its building: (1) interoperability with traditional corpus software (Voyant and Sketch Engine, (2) Indonesian context representativeness through the annotation. Early results provide high-frequency keywords such as students, teachers, and classroom intervention. And rhetorical reconfigurations in discussion segments compared to Global North ELT publications.
