Hi JM
 We've been able of making a query like the one you describe,
our tagset is personalized so if we want to look for a "Name folloewd by an
Adjective" we do next at the SQL: "_N* _A*" (wothout the doublequotes
 
 if we want to look for a secondary tag like, let say gender, the query is like this: {M}
(for masculine)
 
 that means:
 query for primary anotation tag = _*

query for secondary anotation tag = {*}
 
 What we haven't been able to do is find
the combination to query for a "Noun Masculine" for instance, we have tried many
combinations with no success ( _N{M} - {N/M}, etc.) so if somebody could help us with this we
would appreciate it a lot.

Hi,
 
 I am a little (or quite) confused about the syntax of
CQPweb queries (simple query language). I went to the wonderful resource Ray Wu has made
available so that I could see how it works since we are in the process of installing CQPweb as
an interface for our  corpora. I wasn't able to complete any search using the simple query
language, though. I'm sure it is something very simple that I am missing. From what I
understand reading the document 'simple query language syntax', I should be able to do the
following  in the simple query mode:
 
 _JJ _NN1 
 
 which would
supposedly look for sequences of an adjective followed by noun according to the CLAWS tag set.

 
 OK, I'm conducting the searches in the Old Icelandic Corpus which has been
supposedly tagged using the CLAWS7 tagset (according to the information in "View corpus
metadata". When I do this, however, I get a message saying "Your query had no
results. There are  no matches for your query." This is very puzzling because you would
imagine that there would be occurrences of adjectives followed by nouns. Doing it the opposite
order (_NN1 _JJ) gives me the same results. What is even more puzzling is that I also get
nothing  using single POS labels such as _NN1 by itself or _JJ. 
 
 Am I doing
something wrong or is this due to the fact that this particular corpus uses a completely
different tagset? When you access a CQPWeb corpus, is there any way to retrieve the tags that
have been used in the corpus? The only relevant info I find in  this corpus is the link to the
CLAWS7 tagset but, as I said, this doesn't seem to be the right information. Going into the
CQP syntax mode and doing "show +pos" doesn't work.

Dear
members,
 
 We are pleased to announce another CWB/CQPweb setup in China and we dub
it BFSU CQPweb. It is closely modelled after Hardie's own (sorry Andrew, we're badly in need
of imagination) and currently features more than 20 corpora, including two Brown family
cousins  (CLOB and Crown) developed at Beijing Foreign Studies Unversity by Dr. Xu Jiajing and
Professor Liang Maocheng. 
 
 You may access it from 
http://124.193.83.252/cqp/ using test/test as username/password. 
 
 We'd like
to take this opportunity to thank the CWB team for their wonderful work and generosity. It is
great fun to build our work on their shoulders.

Best,
 Ray
