This is a great resource for anyone interested not only in the study of Ugaritic, but the Northwest Semitic languages–including Biblical Hebrew–more generally. You can get the texts of the Ugaritic Data Bank elsewhere, but only this module in Accordance includes grammatical tagging. This means you can search for specific grammatical forms, which is extremely useful; you can, for example, see how certain grammatical forms in Ugaritic are used and compare that with how they are used in Hebrew. The only downside to this resource is that the tagged text as presently available doesn’t include all the mythological texts and also doesn’t include other genres (e.g., letters). Hopefully Accordance will continue to develop and expand this important resource.
