    Dear all,

    I am new to this list and was hoping to get a bit of
    help from you:)

    I am about to start a corpus-based study on Canadian
    translated political speeches. I have about 15
    speeches, of around 3000 words each. I use discourse
    analysis as a methodology. I will have more texts as
    time goes by.

    I asked to several people around me which software
    they are using for their translation studies research.
    Some are using Multiconcord or Paraconc. Most of them
    started with WordSmith to look at the features of
    the texts.

    I don't want the software to be too complicated:) I
    also would like to know if I really need to buy
    Wordsmith and a bilingual concordancer. I am also
    curious to know which one is more "popular" among
    Translation Scholar, if one of you know...

    This is not a question of what is the best
    corcondancer, but of which one would best suit my
    need!

    Thank you in advance for your comments
