Hello there! 

Started another thread as I have a different query. Does Antconc support categorization of words into verbs, adjectives, nouns and function words? 

Thanks!

Best,
Dharani

Hi,

AntConc does support searching for these features, but you have to give it a POS tagged corpus to work with. You can create a POS tagged corpus using my TagAnt tool.

I hope that helps!

Laurence.

Thank you for your input! 

Does the TAGant tool support tamil for this purpose? Because I see that it is not listed in available languages for processing. 

Best,
Dharani

Hi,

I'm sorry to say that TagAnt doesn't support Tamil. When the underlying SpaCy model becomes available, then I can add it to TagAnt.

But, AntConc can work with any tagged data, so if you can find a Tamil tagger, AntConc can work with the output from that.

Regards,

Laurence.
