gregoreite Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 I can't think of an easy way to do this in Accordance or any other software, but I am trying to sort vocabulary in a given text block, say, a NT book, according to frequency. For example, as I study Philippians, I'd like to make a vocabulary list according to the frequency in that book. A bonus if I could do it by root rather than inflected form. Does anyone have a suggestion how I might be able to do this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryan Lilly Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 The way I did it real quick was: [count 1-99999] <and> <range 2 John> then I clicked "Details" and went to "Analysis" Click "command+t" and selected "Count Down" under sort. You might have to adjust for a longer book, or put in a different number than 99999. I didn't know what the highest frequency was, so I figured I'd just cover them all that way haha. Hope that helps? I'd love to know if there is a better way to do this as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpkang Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 Except for sort by root, this is cake for Accordance: 1. Create a range for and set it to the pericope you want (e.g., Philippians in GNT-T) 2. Search for * in Words mode 3. Click Details 4. Click the Analysis tab (or button to create one) 5. Change the Sort: criterion to Count Down or Count Up Count is average hits per 1000 words (if you did not constrain the range in step 1 and used * <AND> [RANGE Philippians] in step 2, the statistics will be frequency across the entire NT instead of the pericope). You could then use Joe Weaks' FlashCord app to export the output to flashcard app... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone have a suggestion how I might be able to do this? Not exactly what you're looking for, but here's a start: 1. Use a defined range relevant to what you want (e.g. book of acts) 2. do a word search for * 3. Click Details button 4. Click "Analysis" and you have a word list. Here's the top of my results for doing this with Acts: Total number of verses = 1007 (total number of verses displayed = 1007) * (24494 total words) A = 20 (No Key number) = 20 a = 294 (No Key number) = 294 Aaron = 1 G0002 Aaron ∆Aarw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregoreite Posted May 29, 2009 Author Share Posted May 29, 2009 All this was very helpful and answered my question. Joe Weaks' app looks like a great tool as well. Thanks you all very much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
