The closest thing I can find is concordance but it seems like its only really used for Bible stuff or WordClouds

  • word frequency
  • eliminating words below frequency cutoffs
  • concordance
  • exportable

DevonThink sorta does it

Frequency analysis? Tokenisation? Not sure if either of those are what you mean

My wife studied linguistics, is the term you are looking for "corpus linguistics"?

A graph representing the frequency of something is called a histogram. That might be the word you are looking for?

Also maybe a word cloud.

I've always just seen it called a frequency table.

Shot in the dark but maybe you're thinking of word2vec?

My Shakespeare teacher in college called it a concordance when we studied Macbeth. There was a full concordance and then concordances for each speaking part. Pretty fascinating stuff.

sometimes it's called bag of words

Word Trends is what this software called them. I always wondered how they know how many times fuck is used in a book, I had hoped they didn't have to count. https://www.maxqda.com/help-mx22/visual-tools/word-trends-analyze-frequencies-of-words-within-a-text
