Regarding Collins Zyzzyva, am I able to obtain a list of the stuff that goes in front of certain words? If I was not clear enough, I have attached images of what I am speaking of below. I am asking this because I am primarily interested in seeing the words coined/popularized by certain people (i.e. Shakespeare, Spenser, and Milton), but I would like to see loanwords as well. Thanks in advance.

Hi, can’t be done currently within Zyzzyva.  What you can do is export all the words and definitions to a file and use some text editor with better searching capabilities on that file, to search for an initial pair of parentheses.  To export all the words and definitions from Zyzzyva, do a Pattern Match search where the pattern box just has *

 

I’ve attached the results of such an external search here.

See also http://www.absp.org.uk/ under the words dropdown tab. Not identical to what’s requested, but contains many word lists by category.
