Concordance
A concordance gathers occurrences of a form or lemma. Search spelling variants, normalized forms and inflections where the corpus permits. Examine surrounding words, date and genre before counting a pattern. A hit list may mix certainty levels or different editions.
The parser
A morphological parser maps a form to possible analyses from its lexicon and rules. Several analyses can be valid strings; only context selects among them. It may also fail because the witness is damaged, the orthography is unusual, or the lexicon omits a dialect form. Show the candidate analyses and their source rather than presenting a single answer as certain.
Citation chain
A strong lexical note states the token and line, the chosen lemma, the relevant dictionary sense, one or more comparable attestations and any uncertainty. It lets another reader repeat the lookup and challenge a specific step.
Modern-language examples on this page clarify a linguistic pattern. They do not establish unattested sounds or forms for an ancient language. Follow the cited sources below and keep editorial readings separate from the surviving trace.
