David Knoll Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 Is it possible to search for those lemmas which only occur within a specified RANGE? For instance all the lemmas which are unique within the Hebrew Bible to the Book of Ruth. Many Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian K. Mitchell Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 (edited) Hello David, Try the following: [COUNT 1] <AND> [RANGE Ruth] Edited July 21, 2013 by bkMitchell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helen Brown Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 That search finds lemmas that occur only once in Ruth. I think David wants lemmas that don't occur outside Ruth. For that you need two tabs. In the first tab you search for all lemmas with * and a range that excludes Ruth (easiest to set up in the Range pop-up menu). In the second tab you have [Range Ruth] *@-[HITS firsttabname]. This finds all the lemmas in Ruth except those found in the first tab. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Knoll Posted July 21, 2013 Author Share Posted July 21, 2013 Thanks Brian, Thought about that. If I understand correctly this only returns Hapax Legomena within the RANGE. I need to find words that can occur twice or thrice but do not occur at all outside the RANGE. Thanks again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian K. Mitchell Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 Oh, I think I get it now! The first tab's search is basically a word list that the second tab's search is ran against to query out or eliminate the hits from books other than Ruth. So, I guess one could also use this method to compare the vocabulary of the Tanakh/ Bible with the Mishnah, too. I could find all the vocabulary unique to the Mishnah and I could find all the vocab that the Bible and the Mishnah have in common. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Knoll Posted July 21, 2013 Author Share Posted July 21, 2013 Helen: It worked. Brian: You got it. That's exactly how it works. Thank you both! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian K. Mitchell Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 Shalom David! I have got a whole lot to learn about conducting searches in Accordance. But, it seems when things are explained they tend to make sense and leave me thinking, "why didn't I see that before"? Or "WOw". Anyway, thank you for your question; it was pleasantly surprising to see how fast it got answered!!! !להתראות Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
