About the SEAlang Library Javanese Text Corpus

This mononlingual corpus consists of Javanese texts retrieved from a variety of Internet sources.  For testing, we are using Kevin Scannell's corpus (about five million words), which is dominated by Wikipedia entries.  Usage

- context searches show how the search target appears in context, taking both leading and trailing collocates (or neighboring words) into account. This search returns a merged list of leading and trailing collocates.

- collocate searches are better for focusing on the search target's immediate neighbor. This search returns separate lists of leading and trailing collocates.

- merged view allows for fast switching between collocate and context views.  Try brief first - downloaded pages may be very large, and a slow browser may fall behind in displaying the detailed view. The Go! button invokes the brief view.

- raw contexts show the search word in context without any attempt at analysis or sanity-checking (local segmentation that helps ensure that a real word has been found).

- restrict collocates requires (or forbids) all collocates to have at least one sense with a particular part of speech or usage. Additional tips

Because the underlying text corpus may be quite large, results may be taken from a random sample of hits.  For common words, this means that sample contexts and exact collocate frequencies will vary from run to run.

Clicking on a word/collocate with the mouse starts a new search: yellow searches for contexts, and black searches for collocates. Copyright notices
