This tutorial is based on Carcass version 0.44

Click on “English” to display all available English corpora.

Click on “UkWaC 1” to select the UkWaC corpus (more information on this corpus are available on this page).

For now let's just stick to the Simple editor.

Type the following phrase in the box and click on Submit:
