Hello all,
After a three-week absence "Phrases in English" interface to the British
National Corpus data is back online. Access to my databases was blocked by
institutional security measures implemented in early August, while I was on
leave. Thanks for your patience to all who have written me.
Rather than comply with the more rigid security measures I decided to set up
an independent server. I am now moving the site to a server near Munich,
which should improve performance for European users. There may be some
delays and outages while I am learning to administer the new server and
rebuilding databases and scripts.
Within a few days http://phrasesinenglish.org will point to the new site.
Meanwhile
http://178.63.122.132/PIE/
will get you there directly.
One new feature: an advanced search interface at
http://178.63.122.132/PIE/searchBNC.html
which supports a variety of match modes (exact form / lemma, phrase,
Boolean, any / all, proximity etc.) and filtering by text-types. More on
these features when the site move and integration are complete.
Feedback on the changes and on unexpected glitches is strongly encouraged!
Regards,
Bill Fletcher
