Word Identifier

This tool displays multiple corpus extracts that all contain a particular word. The word is blanked out, and the task is to identify the word that fits into all the gaps. There are options to select the “Frequency band” of the word (Level 1000, 2000, and 3000), the specific “Word type” (e.g. noun, verb) and for the maximum number of sentences to be displayed. To generate the extracts, click on “Start”. Please note that the 'correct' responses given are those contained in CorCenCC; in some instances a different response may also be plausible.
