| Summary: |
I posted a question about word frenquency list in Chinese more than a month ago. Here is a summary of what I got. Sorry about the delay. I would like to thank William E. Duncan, Jeffrey, J. Hayden, Marjorie Chan and Chris Wen-Chao Li for the information. 1. William Duncan suggested that I do a web search for Jun Da's character lists at mtsu.edu. Here is what I found: http://lingua.mtsu.edu/chinese-computing/statistics/ 2. This is from Jeffrey Hayden: Xiandai Hanyu Zi4pin2 Tongjibiao. (1987). Guojia Yuyan Wenzi Gongzuo Weiyuanhui & Guojia Biaozhun Ju (Eds.). "But that is for individual characters. For words, you could use the latest Hanyu Shuiping Kaoshi lists arranged by levels." ---Jeffrey 3. This is from Marjorie Chan: "Frequency lists online for Chinese tends to be character frequency lists. There are some links in my wordlists webpage: http://deall.ohio-state.edu/chan.9/cdict.htm She also said most of the word (ci2) frequency lists that she's seen are in hardcopy publications. One of them, from Cheng and Tsui is: ISBN: 957638527X Title: 6000 Chinese WordsA Vocabulary Frequency Handbook Price: $27.95 Author: James Erwin Dew "This handbook is designed to assist Chinese language teachers and students in selecting vocabulary for introduction in the early stages of study and for special focus at the intermediate and more advanced levels. It contains frequency information on more than 6,000 words and 3,000 single characters . The word lists include labels for "grading" vocabulary items into elementary, intermediate, and more advanced levels. Also included is a bibliography of sources and dictionaries. SMC, 1999; 6 x 8.5, 372pp."--Marjorie Chan 4. This is from Chris Wen-Chao Li: "...the Chinese Language Corpus site at Academia Sinica should have this information. They've also published a book called "6,000 Chinese Words", which has word frequency lists from Taiwan and Beijing." Hang Du University of Arizona |
