<p class="MsoNormal">Hello,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We are trying to index a bilingual corpus in CQPweb, and to look for certain words only in a specific language (e.g. only in French). Taking into account the following segment structure, we have tried with this search in CQP syntax:
<o:p></o:p></p>
