Abstract
This paper presents a cloud-based Chinese language query system which provides n-gram and skip n-gram frequencies retrieved from the Chinese Web 5-gram corpus. Language learners can learn frequently co-occurring context words or other contextual information from the retrieval results. The system was implemented using a MySQL relational database and PHP script language. Experimental results show the retrieval time for some sample queries which reveals that the system achieves high retrieval efficiency.
