[Corpora-List] help with n-grams

[William Fletcher]

Hello Marc,

My free Windows program kfNgram 
http://www.kwicfinder.com/kfNgram/
can generate character n-grams ("chargrams") in addition to word n-grams
("wordgrams").  You can specify length (n), position (initial, final,
medial) etc.  It was used to produce chargrams from the BNC at
http://pie.usna.edu/explorec.html or
http://phrasesinenglish.org/explorec.html

Let me know if you have any questions about how to use it on your data, e.g.
how to define a custom character set for the phonemic data.

Regards,
Bill Fletcher

Hi all,
I wonder if anyone could help a linguist with moderate programming abilities
with the following task.
I am currently working on a corpus of aligned grapheme-to-phoneme isolated
words.
I would like to produce an N-gram parsing of both levels of data (the
graphemic and the phonemic) with a view to extracting trends favouring
realisations (i.e. this grapheme will realise as that phoneme with an x rate
of occurrence if preceded/followed by such and such graphemes). The db is
currently c3000 words, but it will keep growing.
Cheers,
Marc
