Very good corpus search tool

Thanks to Reed James for a tip about Linear B, an set of online searchable translation memories. I don't know where the translation memories are from—evidently not ancient Mycenean stone tablets, because it is giving me spectacular results whenever I’m stuck on a word or phrase. I think I will be using this a lot from now on.

Here are the direct links for searching Linear B Spanish to English, and English to Spanish.
