Collocate 2.0 Collocate is a Windows software program that can be used to find collocations or terms in a corpus. The program is sophisticated but at the same time intuitive and easy to use.
There are three main components:
1. Search for a word (phrase) within a set span (e.g. 4 words). The program lists all the collocations containing the search word and provides frequency and/or statistical information (Log Likelihood, Mutual Information, t-score). Concordance lines can be obtained for any of the extracted collocations or phrases.
2. Produce an n-gram, lexical bundle or p-frame list for a corpus.
3. Extract collocations from the corpus as a whole, given a span size, such as 2 to 6 words.
