The full list is available in PDF eBook format -- $19.95 for the 5,000 word list, $29.95 for 10,000 words, and $39.95 for the full 20,000 word list (nearly 2,000 pages) .  \nStandard introduction  \nThis word frequency list is based on the 400+ million word Corpus of Contemporary American English (COCA), which is the only large, recent, and genre-balanced corpus of American English. Due to the characteristics of the corpus on which the data is based, you can be sure that the words that you find here are ones that you would encounter in the \"real world\" . Because the entries are arranged in order of frequency, you can maximize your study of English vocabulary in a way that is probably not available with any other resource.  \nOther frequency lists are available from [www.wordfrequency.info](www.wordfrequency.info. These)[. These](www.wordfrequency.info. These) include frequency and collocates lists that contain 200-300 collocates for each word (compared to the 20-30 here), for a total of about 5,000,000 collocates for the 20,000 word list. Unlike this PDF version, the expanded collocates lists allow you to edit, copy from, and print from the files. On the other hand, those versions are not formatted as nicely as what you have here, they are more expensive, and they are designed mainly for use by (computational) linguists.  \nIn addition to the frequency lists, you can also purchase complete 2-gram and 3-gram lists from the entire 400 million word corpus, containing more than 100 million n-grams. You can also purchase a printed (book) version of the entries 1-5,000, which was published by Routledge in 2010 as the Frequency Dictionary of American English: word sketches, collocates, and thematic lists.  \nFinally, a note on accuracy. We believe that the frequency list itself (the words \\#1-5,000, 10,000 or 20,000) is very accurate--probably more so than any other frequency list of English. In addition, the more than 100,000 collocates for words 1-5,000 have been corrected manually, although there are undoubtedly a few remaining problems. There are more than 250,000 collocates for the 10,000 word list and more than 500,000 collocates for the 20,000 word list. Because of the number of collocates, these have not been checked individually for accuracy, although many efforts have been made to correct the list as a whole.  \nIf you would like to see detailed information on the composition of the corpus, and details on exactly how the frequency list was created (tokenization, part of speech tagging, lemmatization, frequency and dispersion calculations, extracting collocates, etc), please see the introductory material in the book sample.  \nThank you for purchasing this frequency list. We hope that it will be a useful tool for you in your study, teaching, and research of English.  \n2  \n ALPHABETICAL INDEX  \nA B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z  \n PART OF SPEECH INDEX  \nverb noun adjective adverb function word  \n(Note: use ALT ← to return to indexes from frequency-based entries)  \nFormat of frequency-based entries  \nRank frequency (1, 2, 3,…), lemma, part of speech Collocates  \n(● Synonyms, when available)  \nRaw frequency, dispersion (0 .00 – 1.00),(register variation: Spoken, Fiction, Magazines, Newspapers, Academic)  \nNote that the collocates are grouped by part of speech and ordered by frequency (most frequent first) .
