Dear Laurence, 

I have used antconc to compile a monolingual burmese corpus. When I am trying to click the Word tab and start to check the high frequency of the words, only single letter, like က, ခ, ဂ will come up from the result. There is missing of ကို, ဟု word that with more than a letter, with other accessory parts. Also, when I try to check the phrase (even showing in KWIC), the result said 'no hit is found'.
May I know how to group the word parts in one character / one phrase? 
Thanks in advance.

Hi,

When you create your corpus using the corpus manager, try opening the token definition and checking the 'Marks' option. I think Burmese uses marks, so you need to add these. If you do that, I think everything will work as expected. If it doesn't, post back here what you find.

Laurence.
