The corpus-driven approach examines the semantic and temporal changes in the frequency of friendly fire since its inception in half a century. The results show that friendly fire is used more frequently in colloquialism and news discourse. In recent years, its scope of use has been expanded and its semantic meaning has been changed. A negative semantic atmosphere has been filled in the span. The article elaborates the evolution of friendlyfire in the light of social and historical factors. Relevant research methods and research findings have opened up new perspectives on the study of vocabulary changes and provided a new perspective for teaching English for special-purpose English.
