Collocate is a new 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). The use of wildcards allow for a variety of non-contiguous word sequences to be identified. The bulk search option is useful for finding the collocations associated with a list of words
2. Produce an n-gram list for the corpus. n-grams are similar to lexical bundles
3. Extract collocations from the corpus as a whole, given a span size, such as 2 to 6 words.
