I have two files: one which is the dictionary, and the other one corresponds to the list of words that appear in a transcription. I need to output the words out of vocabulary words. This is:
dict.txt
you
she
apple
banana
strawberry
eat
transcript.txt
you
strawberry
and
banana
<silence>
for
breakfast
So, my desired output would look like this:
and
for
breakfast
<silence>
Is there any command output such words that are not found in the dictionary? thanks in advance!
grep -vf dict.txt transcript.txt
and
<silence>
for
breakfast
The above solution treats the file content as patterns. That does work in this example but not in general. In order to match the full lines literally you need:
grep -vFxf dict.txt transcript.txt
dict.txt and transcript.txt (or specify the full path to those files. Also this command as is will not produce an output file (because you have not asked for one), it will send the output to stdout.
<silence>?
