concordance

[Florence Chenu]

Dear Brian,

Thank you for your answer. I apologize I didn’t reply earlier, I’ve been
busy and couldn’t find the time to check the following point :

In the output on the sample.cha you sent, it seems that the program would
count the same occurrence of “see” several times. 

 

Ex :

 1  hey nicky want to see what

1  nicky want to see what other

1  see what other neat toys there

1  to see what other neat toys

 

That is 4 counts for “see” but I think in the corpus there is only one
occurrence in “hey nicky want to see what other neat toys there are ?”,
right ? Do I get something wrong ?

Thanks again for all the things you do for the community and I wish you and
your team a very happy new year,

Florence.

Dear Florence,

     This command:  cooccur +n6 +ssee sample.cha   seems to work pretty
well. Here is the output on the sample.cha file in the /samples folder:

 

 1  hey nicky want to see what

    1  nicky want to see what other

    1  see what other neat toys there

    1  to see what other neat toys

    1  want to see a more toys

    1  want to see what other neat

    1  you want to see a more

 

The problem here is that often the target word is not actually going to have
three words before or after it, because it appears early or late in the
utterance.  If you try to find only the cases that have three words before
and after, you will miss many instances of your target word.

Dear Chibolts members,

 

Does anyone know how I could get 3 words before and 3 words after a target
word (and the frequency of this pattern). I tried “cooccur" but did not
succeed.

 

Thanks,

Florence.
