Database: Sir Thomas Malory's Tale of Sir Gareth of Orkney

Programs: Web page at http://sites.fas.harvard.edu/~chaucer/special/litsubs/romances/gareth.htm

Tasks:

  • Search for all uses of the verb seem (including beseem etc.).
  • Compare the structures you find with those that the verb seem can be used in today. Which structure is the most frequent one, which is second etc.?
  • Does the verb seem occur in any other meanings than the current one?

Notes:

  • Rather than searching a text manually for all possible variants of the structure, it might be useful to highlight, copy and paste the text into a text file. After that, you can create a concordance in AntConc or Wordsmith and retrieve all variants from that list.
