Textmining with R - inner_join a dictionary list

[fh_swf]

Hello everybody,

unfortunately I have a problem. My goal is to compare the word frequency from a self-made dictionary with the existing text file. First of all I created the dictionary:

dict <- dictionary (list (first = c ("house *", "mouse *", "like *", "... *")

How can I now determine the word frequency of the existing words from the dictionary from my already tokenized text file (named db_df)? I've already tried an inner join, but unfortunately it didn't work. Have you ever had a case like this?

FAQ: How to do a minimal reproducible example ( reprex ) for beginners

A minimal reproducible example consists of the following items: A minimal dataset, necessary to reproduce the issue The minimal runnable code necessary to reproduce the issue, which can be run on the given dataset, and including the necessary information on the used packages. Let's quickly go over each one of these with examples: Minimal Dataset (Sample Data) You need to provide a data frame that is small enough to be (reasonably) pasted on a post, but big enough to reproduce your issue. Let's say, as an example, that you are working with the iris data frame head(iris) #> Sepal.Length Sepal.Width Petal.Length Petal.Width Species #> 1 5.1 3.5 1.4 0.…
