Problem with generating a lemma list

[Gong penguin]

Dear Prof. Laurence Anthony,

I'm trying to use the recommended AntConc 4.2 to generate a lemma list of my own medical corpus. I have used simple_word_pos_headword_indexer, uploaded  Someya Lemma List (no hypens), and the tool setting display is headword+[type], but the result is like this:

Questions:

1. How to build a lemma list?

2. Is it possible to delete unwanted lines? (I have tried to select certain lines and used delete or control delete. It did work.  )

3. Is it possible to put the headword in the 1st column, and  type in the 2nd column?

Thank you for your time. Looking forward for more advanced tutorial of AntConc 4.

Hi, I have 3 quick questions: 

1) If I upload say, 6 texts and a word list, can Antconc tell me how many times the word appears in each text? 

1a.Can it also highlight the words in the texts? 1b.Can I download that as a word document (with the highlights) to be edited later? 

1c.Can it list the sentences (from each text) in which each word appears? 

2) If I upload say, 6 texts and a list of phrases, can Antconc tell me how many times each phrase appears in each text? 2a.Can it also highlight the phrases in the texts? 2b.Can I download that as a word document (with the highlights) to be edited later? 

2c.Can it list the sentences (from each text) in which each phrase appears? 

3) Are the texts & lists I upload stored in the Antconc system forever? Can they be accessed automatically by other users? 

If possible, I would like to be able to delete the texts & lists I will upload along with the analysis results. Is this possible? 

Kind regards, Evrim Uysal

Evrim,

Can you post your question as a separate thread? Otherwise, people will get confused because this thread is from Peng about generating a lemma list. I'll delete this post from you after you copy it to a new thread.

Regards,

Laruence.

Sure, I will. 

Could you please guide me as to how? 

Is there a link to it? 

Kind regards,

Hi Evirm,

Just start a new thread in the discussion group. Or from email, just post a message to the discussion group email address with a new subject header.

Laurence.

Dear Laurence

You gave me a nice workaround to create key n-grams lists with AntConc 3, but I don't see how to this could function with AntConc 4. Any tips would be gratefully received!

Best wishes

alex

PS I'm still finding v4 wonderful, thanks so much for all your work

Hi Alex,

As I write in the other thread on the same topic....

In AntConc 4.2, it was quite difficult to get the word list formatting correct to load word lists as corpora, which also made it difficult to do the same thing for n-grams and clusters. So, today, I released AntConc 4.2.1, which addresses this issue.

Now, it should be straightforward to load a corpus comprised of a word list, n-gram list, cluster list or even collocate list. So, to generate key n-grams, key clusters, or key collocates, just follow the steps below:

1. Generate your target and reference lists (clusters, n-grams, collocates, words) using the standard AntConc tools.
2. Making sure that "All results" are showing, export the results via the File Menu (or simply copy the results table to a text file directly)
3. In the Corpus Manager, choose the word list option to create a corpus, and then load in the respective tables for your target and reference corpora to create new word list corpora for each of them. I recommend you name your new corpora appropriately, e.g. BE06_2-grams.
4. Select your newly created word list corpora as the target and reference corpora, and in the main display, generate keywords, just as you would for a regular corpus.

Let me know how it goes. I've tried it here and everything went smoothly. Note that I plan to add a feature in an upcoming release, where you can choose the 'source' of the keyword tool as the Cluster, N-Gram, Collocate, or Word tool. This would then simplify the procedure as you wouldn't need to export the results for the target corpus as AntConc would be able to use the results directly. It would work in a similar way to how the Word Cloud tool works, where you can set the source for the lists as being any one of the tool outputs.

I hope that helps!

Laurence.
