example, as part of a genre or ESP study. +The software includes seven tools: Concordance Tool: shows search results in a 'KWIC' (KeyWord In Context) format. Concordance Plot Tool: shows search results plotted as a 'barcode' format. This allows you to see the position where search results appear in target texts. File View Tool: This tool shows the text of individual files. This allows you to investigate in more detail the results generated in other tools of AntConc. Clusters/N-Grams: hows clusters based on the search condition. In effect it summarizes the results generated in the Concordance Tool or Concordance Plot Tool. The N-Grams Tool, on the other hand, scans the entire corpus for 'N' (e.g. 1 word, 2 words, …) length clusters. This allows you to find common expressions in a corpus. Collocates: shows the collocates of a search term. This allows you to investigate non-sequential patterns in language. Word List: counts all the words in the corpus and presents them in an ordered list. This allows you to quickly find which words are the most frequent in a corpus. Keyword List: shows the which words are unusually frequent (or infrequent) in the corpus in comparison with the words in a reference corpus. This allows you to identify characteristic words in the corpus, for example, as part of a genre or ESP study. |
