Abstract: DANTE - the Database of ANalysed Texts of English – is a lexical database which provides a corpus-based description of the core vocabulary of English. It records the semantic, grammatical, combinatorial, and text-type characteristics of over 42,000 single-word lemmas and 23,000 compounds and phrasal verbs, and it also includes over 27,000 idioms and phrases. Every fact recorded in the database is derived from a systematic analysis of a 1.7 billion-word corpus and supported by corpus examples. The complete text of DANTE from M to R is freely available online (at www.webdante.com), and the full database is available through research or commercial licences (http://dante.sketchengine.co.uk/). The website provides basic information about DANTE and a Help function to assist users who wish to search the database. This User Guide is intended to complement the information on the website and explain the rationale of the various components of DANTE's microstructure.
