Word frequency data


In addition to frequency lists for English, we also have what we believe are the most accurate frequency lists for Spanish, containing the top 40,000 lemmas / words in the language. The Spanish data is based on 1 billion words of data in the Web/Dialects corpus from the Corpus del Español.

When you purchase the data, you will receive three different datasets (see detailed information on format):

1. Top 40,000 lemmas (see samples), where lemma = all forms of a word (e.g. estar = estar, estamos, estaba, estarán).

3. Frequency of top 200,000 word forms (see samples), not lemmatized or tagged for part of speech. Shows # texts (to find and perhaps remove words that are in just a few texts) and % capitalized (to find words that are probably proper nouns)
