Frequency ListIn computational linguistics, a frequency list is a sorted list of words (word types) together with their frequency, where frequency here usually means the number of occurrences in a given corpus. A short example could be: | the | 3789654 | | he | 2098762 | | ... | | | king | 57897 | | boy | 56975 | | ... | | | outragious | 76 | | ... | | | stringyfy | 5 | | ... | | | transducionalify | 1 | It seems that Zipf's law holds for frequency lists drawn from longer texts of any natural language. Frequency lists are a necessary prerequisite for building of an electronic dictionary, which is by itself a prerequisite for a wide range of applications in computational linguistics.
