FrequencyDictionaries
This repository contains frequency dictionaries in the form of text files, with one word per line.
The repository is organized into two folders:
freq_dicts_dirty
: Contains dictionaries with words that may not appear in a "standard" dictionary.freq_dicts_clean
: Contains dictionaries that have been cleaned and supplemented to include only words found in a "standard" dictionary.
freq_dicts_dirty
The files in this folder were derived from the LuminosoInsight/wordfreq project. These dictionaries were converted into .txt
files with one word per line, ordered by frequency (most frequent words come first). Only words longer than two characters were retained.
The conversion process involved:
- Using the jakm/msgpack-cli tool to convert
.msgpack
files to.json
format. - Transforming the
.json
files into.txt
files with one word per line usingsed
andgrep
.
freq_dicts_clean
The files in this folder were created by cleaning the dictionaries in the freq_dicts_dirty
folder. This process involved removing words not found in the corresponding dictionaries from titoBouzout/Dictionaries.
File Naming Conventions
- Files named
short_xx.txt
retain their original names. - Files originally named
long_xx.txt
have been renamed tomedium_xx.txt
. - New
long_xx.txt
files are created frommedium_xx.txt
(orshort_xx.txt
when applicable). These are supplemented by appending, in alphabetical order, all words present in the "standard" dictionary but absent from the "frequency" dictionary.
