(Recommend using Mozilla Firefox or Apple® Safari to search. Best viewed in 1680x1050 screen resolution.)
1. Query word/phrase accepts English alphabets and dash only (i.e. A-Z, a-z, -), case-insensitive.
2. Search string syntax word^pos. [e.g. book^nn, book^vb ^dt, ^vb ^dt ^nn, etc.]
- The symbol ^tag indicates the tag to be searched for. The string in front of the caret symbol ^ is the query word.
- A maximum of 5 units of 'word', 'word^pos' or '^pos' can be used for query.
- A caret with a number (e.g. ^2) in the middle of the search string instructs the search engine to skip two words in between any two query parameters (e.g. book ^2 advance).
- Head and/or tail partial search of the query word/phrase is possible by adding ' - ' to the front or end of the query word/phrase (e.g. -ment, advan-, -fine-)
- Tail partial search for the POS tag is possible by adding '-' at the end of the POS tag (e.g. ^NN- will return ^NN, ^NNS, ^NNP, ^NNPS)
- Units are separated by a space. Punctuation is not accepted.
