Collocation errors can be automatically proofed using local and network-based corpora, including the Web. For example, according to one illustrative method, one or more collocations from a text sample are compared with a corpus such as the content of the Web. The collocations are identified for whether they are disfavored in the corpus. Indications are provided via an output device of whether the collocations are disfavored in the corpus. Additional steps may then be taken such as searching for and providing potentially proper word collocations via a user output. |
