Jeff Kermah Posted September 28, 2023 Share Posted September 28, 2023 How can I search for verses in Chronicles when revia is three words before zaqef? How would you set up a Hebrew Construct for this, if regular search would not accomplish this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Accordance Enthusiast Posted September 28, 2023 Share Posted September 28, 2023 (edited) Hello @Jeff Kermah, here is how to do it: Copy and paste this into your search window and adjust as needed: " *@.֗ * * *@.֔ " It looks backwards here but pastes correctly for me. If you need an extra word in between, just add an extra * in the search which represents any word. There are a number of ways to refine such a search, but this is a starting point...

Ken Simpson Posted September 29, 2023 Share Posted September 29, 2023 You could also use the <WITHIN ? WORDS> along with <FOLLOWED BY> to specify that the zaqef follows. You would need to do 2 searches for the caton and gadol. The other "quirk" is that accordance treats inseparable prepositions, the definite article and waw as separate words. so I would do something like this based on the search above... .<revia symbol> <FOLLOWED BY> <WITHIN 3-4 WORDS> .<zaqef caton or zaqef gadol symbol>. Then you would have to wort the results but not too onerous I guess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
