TV and movie scripts

Most common words in TV and movie scripts: Here are frequency lists comparable to the Gutenberg ones, but based on 29,213,800 words from TV and movie scripts and transcripts.

Here's a fuller explanation of how the list was generated and its limitations: Wiktionary:Frequency lists/TV/2006/explanation.

Here are the top hundred words (from TV scripts) in alphabetical order:

Here they are in frequency order:

Top 1,000 words cover 85.5% of all words (24,981,922/29,213,800).
Top 10,000 words cover 97.2% of all words (28,398,152/29,213,800).

From the 10,000th to the 40,000th :

10001-12000 · 12001-14000 · 14001-16000 · 16001-18000 · 18001-20000 · 20001-22000 · 22001-24000 · 24001-26000 · 26001-28000 · 28001-30000 · 30001-32000 · 32001-34000 · 34001-36000 · 36001-38000 · 38001-40000
40001-41284 (the dregs that were tied for the final place)

This is a third of all the unique words. The rest were used 5 or fewer times each.

Project Gutenberg

Most common words in Project Gutenberg:

These lists are the most frequent words, when performing a simple, straight (obvious) frequency count of all the books found on Project Gutenberg. The list of books was downloaded in July 2005, and "rsynced" monthly thereafter. These are mostly English words, with some other languages finding representation to a lesser extent. Many Project Gutenberg books are scanned once their copyright expires, typically book editions published before 1923, so the language does not necessarily always represent current usage. For example, "thy" is listed as the 280th most common word. Also, with 24,000+ books, the text of the boilerplate warning for Project Gutenberg appears on each of them.

Here are the top 100 words from Project Gutenberg texts in alphabetical order:

Top French words from subtitles based on www.opensubtitles.org


Note: these indicative lists still require some cleanup, because:

  1. they don't unify common words that are normally not capitalized in the dictionary, but can be capitalized at the begining of sentences or in titles;
  2. they do not break correctly words preceded by a separate word contracted with an apostrophe for very common articles (l') or preposition (d') or negation adverb (n') or pronoun (c', j', l', m', s', t'), or verbal liaison particles (-t-, -z-, which are not really words as they don't have any meaning but are written for phonetic reason), or pronoun subjects just after the verb (after a mandatory linking hyphen, that still does not make a compound word but denotes the inversion of the subject rather than the normal occurrence of an object): all these words should be counted separately;
  3. the source is certainly from Belgian French written papers only, with typical occurrences for that country and no equivalence for France, or other French speaking countries where these words are much rarely used (such as currency abbreviations, Belgian toponyms for regions and cities, and many missing terms for very common specialties in France);
  4. the list contains isolated letters that are not words, per se (except a few effective words: a, à, y);
  5. as well, there are acronyms and symbols occurring only in written documents but not as part of the spoken language;
  6. frequent proper names are included but are not very specific to any of the 4 studied languages.

This list does not unify inflected words (with plural or feminine mark on nouns or adjectives, or conjugated verbs), and does not recognize auxiliaries of verbs at compound tenses as part of the conjugated verb, but treat auxiliaries separately for each inflected form. Alphabetising this list can be very helpful for spotting redundancies.

The online dictionary http://kheng.info has by far the best frequency list. It also has a box where you can paste items from the list and it hyperlinks the words to immediate recorded pronunciation. Just copy and paste from the "Frequencies" page to the "Read" page. It actually contains pronunciations for almost all of the first 1000, and most of the first 2000. The entire frequency list can be downloaded at the bottom of the "Frequencies page". The anonymous creators of the site have done an enormous job to advance Khmer learning.

You may have noticed a better way to remember these in order by thinking of ANGIST-MOLKY-UPREH-D-B-W. Also N and G got quite high due to the fact that the letter NGng adds it up at very high percentages.

The Word Frequency List of Chilean Spanish (Lifcach) is a set of 102 frequency lists derived from the sub-corpora of the Corpus Dinámico del Castellano de Chile (Dynamic Corpus of Chilean Spanish, Codicach), a corpus of contemporary written Chilean Spanish developed by Sadowsky between 1997 and 2002; this corpus contained approximately 450 million words when the Lifcach was created (it currently contains some 800 million words). The Lifcach also contains a non-weighted list of total frequencies (the Total Occurrences column), which is simply the sum of the frequencies of the 102 individual lists (in other words, the list of frequencies of the entire Codicach corpus.)
