Please de-select the [MIN FREQ] checkbox for Section 2 in the form,
if the [MIN FREQ] for Section 1 is not selected as well.
SORT / LIMIT
Sort by raw frequency (e.g. hard * ) or by "relevance" ( hard *). Relevance uses the Mutual Information score.
It is often useful to specify the minumim frequency when you are sorting by "relevance", to eliminate very low frequency strings. For example, collocates of green where minimum frequency = 1 (strange once-off strings) and where minimum frequency = 20.
Note also that when you do a collocates search and you don't specify anything for the collocates field, it will automatically set MINIMUM to MUT INFO = 3 (Mutual Information score). It does this to remove high frequency noise words like the, to, with, etc. If you want to see more of these words, lower the MI score; to see less, increase it.
