VIEW : VARIATION IN ENGLISH WORDS AND PHRASES
(by Mark Davies, Brigham Young University )
"You can search for words and phrases by exact word or phrase, wildcard or part of speech, or combinations of these. You can also use anchors and targets for fuzzy matches (e.g. all nouns somewhere near paper, all adjectives near woman, or all nouns near spin)...
One unique aspect of the corpus is the ability to find the frequency of words and phrases in any combination of registers that you define (spoken, academic, poetry, medical, etc). In addition, you can compare between registers...
You can easily compare between synonyms and other semantically-related words.
...find the frequency and distribution of words with similar, more general, or more specific meanings."
