Notes on using ExtPhr32 and AntConc as terminology extraction tools Nov 25, 2011

I tried using ExtPhr32 (recommended earlier ni this discussion) to extract terminology. It worked well, I could easily reduce the outcoming list of terms by defining my "stoplist" and "break set" TXT files. However, this tool has one major drawback for me - it uses the ISO 8859-1 character set where some important Czech characters are missing (ž, Ž, ť, Ť) - the first two exist also in Finnish, if I am not mistaken. So if I want to use the term list, I need to add these charactes manually. Tr... See more

So if I want to use the term list, I need to add these charactes manually. Trying to specify them in the "additional letter set" didn't help either. Then I found there is a newer version ("ExtPhr33"), but the installation wizard froze twice in a row, so I gave up.

As to AntConc, it is slightly more complicated to learn to use and it doesn't display correctly if you are using different DPI (mine is 144 and I am still willing to keep it).

Are there any free solutions on the Internet?



... is an excellent little freeware utility which "Extracts every word and every phrase up to a certain length that occurs at least a minimum number of times in a source text and that does not start or end with a stopword"

A English stopword list file is provided but you can find stopword lists for other languages on the Web.

The Java version does work on Windows 7 (scroll down).

I wish there was a way to tell the program to output only the longest phrases.
