Finding examples of use in context

The concordance is used to find examples of a word, lemma, phrase, tag or even a complex grammatical or lexical structure.

How to use the concordance

Log in and select a corpus.

BASIC

On the basic tab type the word or phrase.

.av-hotspot-image-container .av-image-hotspot.av-33lybcg-1cc50dc745813143a426c61fadb7834c{ top:50%; left:50%; } .av-hotspot-image-container .av-image-hotspot.av-33lybcg-1cc50dc745813143a426c61fadb7834c .av-image-hotspot_inner{ background-color:#edae44; color:#000000; } .av-hotspot-image-container .av-image-hotspot.av-33lybcg-1cc50dc745813143a426c61fadb7834c .av-image-hotspot-pulse{ background-color:#b02b2c; }

If you type the lemma (base form), the simple search on the basic tab will automatically search for all forms of the word. Typing go will find goes, going, gone, went

If you type one of the word forms, e.g. goes, it will only find that word from.
