The input data for distinctive collocates analysis in Rajeg (2019, Ch.7). The collocates data are words co-occurring within the span of 4 words to the right and left of the happiness near-synonyms. Following Gevaert (2007, p. 197), the collocates that are part of the studied synonyms are excluded because they may neutralise the distinctive features of the near-synonyms when the goal is to find semantic differences between these near-synonyms.
