a set of examples of a given word or phrase, showing the context. A concordance of give might look like this:
... could not give me the time ...
... Rosemary, give me another ...
... would not give much for that ...
A concordancer searches through a text or a group of texts and then shows the concordance as output. This can be saved, printed, etc.
