Advanced Options: Word Filter

The word filter option on the Advanced Interface allows you to include extra words which must appear or must not appear on the same web pages as your search term. Place a minus sign (-) before words which must not appear.

For example, with the search term 'plant' you may include nuclear -flower as a word filter to restrict the sense of the search term (i.e. only show examples of the word 'plant' from web pages also containing the word 'nuclear' but not the word 'flower'):

The words you specify in the Word Filter option will not necessarily be included in all concordance lines, they must simply appear or not appear on the web page from which the concordance was extracted.
