concordance

Parent Previous Next


concordance – an alphabetic list of all instances of a certain word or phrase in a corpus in its immediate context (before and after). It is most commonly displayed as a 'keyword in context' (KWIC), a computer-generated set of concordance lines consisting of the target word and its linguistic context, which may be used to explore various uses or senses of the feature of interest (cf. Anderson and Corbett 2009: 48, 194; Teubert 2007: 140-141; Lindquist 2009: 5-8; Baker 2006: 42-43).
