This completely updated edition of A Frequency Dictionary of German contains the 5,000 most commonly used words of German today, occurring in a 20 million word corpus (compared to a 4.2 million corpus in the first edition).

The corpus is designed to represent the current German language as it is used in real world. Useful as a reference for students and course designers alike, A Frequency Dictionary of German is an important new resource.

This CD version has been specifically designed for use by corpus and computational linguists. It provides the frequency corpus in a tab-delimited format allowing you the flexibility to process the material for your own research purposes, while the Dictionary provides a rich resource for language teaching and curriculum design.
