I think you are overcomplicating it, but what you are trying to do makes sense, given that you are wrestling with a concept you don't have in your language, and one that is complex.

Do you know how to use a concordancer? Click on the links below to look at some examples:

The wrong:

These are real examples of usage. You can use this site for examples of words or phrases.
