Megan Turton Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Hey there! I was wondering if there is a way to count Hebrew words, with "word" being defined as a graphic unit that has a space on either side of it. The function for counting Hebrew "words" * <AND> [RANGE Hebrew text] actually counts morphemes: grammatical units of meaning smaller than words (although the counting excludes pronominal suffixes, for some reason). Is there also a way that you can count Hebrew words (graphic units)? Thanks for your help! All the best, Megan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helen Brown Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 There is no way to count what you define as a word. Remember, by the way, that the original manuscripts often did not use spaces. If you count the lexical forms you won't be counting the suffixes as they have no lexical forms. You can try counting all lexical forms with an asterisk, but adding @ minus [Particle] to ignore the prefixes, but you will lose some words that are only particles or particles with a suffix.

Joel Brown Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 You can also try downloading an untagged Hebrew text, such as the 'Unpointed Hebrew Bible' from our exchange: http://www.accordancefiles1.com/exchange/bibles.htm Searches on this text would in theory count words in the fashion you are seeking.

Ken Simpson Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 So we solved this using Darren Frnaklin’s RegexForAccordance. What a marvellous little app it is for this sort of thing, and thanks to Darren for his help. I second the request I saw on the thread deaoing with RegexForAccordance to have this functionality built into accordance., perhaps as an advanced search feature. Anyway, problem solved and Megan is happy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timothy Jenney Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 Would it be easier to simply add a way to search for a white space in Accordance? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michel Gilbert Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 . . . RegexForAccordance . . . as an advanced search feature. . . . a way to search for a white space +1 (or is it +2?) to these 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Λύχνις Δαν Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 Certainly native regex support generally would be really nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fabian Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 RegexforAccordance is broken at the moment. Darin Franklin does maintain it when he gets a new Mac later this year. Greetings Fabian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darin is working on an update soon. I downloaded the source code and compiled it against Xcode 9. It worked when I did that. , Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
