To find common collocates in a window surrounding the node word:

  • Make a concordance.
  • Click on "Collocations" near the bottom of the left hand side panel of the screen.
  • If you want to see collocates specifically associated with your query but which are rarer in everyday speech, select "Salience" in the Show Functions and Sort By menus.
  • Click on "Make Candidate List" to see a list of the words most commonly used near your node word (the KWIC).
