Corpora: Wordsmith question

[Rod de Lima-Lopes]

Hi Maritza

I think you should use detailed consistencie tool (in the wordlist
programme), since it can tell you how quite acuratelly how many lexicon is
shared by two wordlists

go to wordlist > compararison > consistency (detailed

I hope it helps
