Description

A Frequency Dictionary of Polish is an invaluable tool for all learners of Polish, providing an index of the 5,000 most frequently used words in the language.

This dictionary is based on a 100-million-word corpus of Polish, which includes written texts and spoken material from a wide range of genres and registers, including conversation, fiction, newspapers, and e-language. It provides the user with detailed information for each of the top 5,000 entries, including English equivalents, a sample sentence and its English translation, usage statistics, and an indication of register variation. Users can access the entries either through the main frequency listing or through the alphabetical and part-of-speech indexes. Thematically organised lists of the top words from a variety of key topics such as sports, clothing, and family are presented throughout the frequency listing.

An engaging, accessible, and highly useful resource, A Frequency Dictionary of Polish will enable students of all levels to get the most out of their language study.

Designed for use by corpus and computational linguists, the full text is provided in a format that researchers can process and turn into suitable lists for their own research work at resourcecentre.routledge.com/books/9781041260639.
