KWIC concordance view

KWIC (Key Word In Context) is a concordance display format commonly used in corpus linguistics. It shows each search result with the keyword centered, surrounded by its left and right context.

Switching between List and KWIC views

After performing a search, click the KWIC button to switch from the default list view to the KWIC concordance view. Click List to switch back.

KWIC display format

The KWIC view presents results in a three-column table:

Column	Content
Left context	Words preceding the keyword (right-aligned)
Keyword	The matched search term (centered, highlighted)
Right context	Words following the keyword (left-aligned)

Each row also includes icons for viewing the segment in context and playing the video.

Compact display

When the search query contains four or more words, or when the matched keyword spans four or more words, the keyword column shows a compact placeholder marker (···) instead of the full keyword text. Hover over the marker to see the matched keyword, or click it to open the segment detail view.

Tips

• The KWIC view is available for all search types (regular and advanced)
• Pagination works the same way as in list view
• Switching between List and KWIC does not trigger a new search
