Monolingual Term Extraction - Requesting Advice

Hi,

I am a beginner looking to extract a list of monolingual (English) term candidates from a large bilingual translation memory file using Trados Studio, MultiTerm, and/or Term Extract. I am interested in extracting terms based on frequency and would greatly appreciate any guidance on how to approach this task, as I am encountering some difficulties understanding the documentation and getting stuck due to my limited experience.


Thanks and kind regards
