Dear all,

A colleague of mine is working on a research project involving the analysis of the frequency of certain syntactical structures in Italian and English novels, such as subject-verb-complement structures, or the frequency of adverbs ending in a specific suffix and their position in the sentence.
Does anyone know any software that could be useful to the purpose?

I know that this subject may be a little far from the main interests of the people reading this list, but I thought it could be worth a try.

Thank you in advance,

Giulia
