    I have a question that I hesitate to ask because I'm sure the answer is
    obvious. I have a tagged German text. I want to run WordList in Word
    Smith Tools in a way that the tags will differentiate homographs, e.g. sein
    (verb and pronoun), da (adverb and conjunction), etc. I would think that
    because the words have different tags that they appear differently in the
    list. However, thus far I have been successful in ignoring the tags or
    having them treated as separate words. In both cases the different uses of
    sein etc. are grouped together.

    What am I doing wrong?
