the 86,741 different word forms in English
according to their frequency of occurrence in a
large corpus of written English. So, for example,
the word “the” is ranked number 1, the 10th
most frequent word is “it,” the word “know” is
ranked 100, the word “pass” is ranked 1,000,
the word “vibrate” is 5,000th in frequency, the
word “shrimp” is 9,000th in frequency, and the
word “amplifier” is 16,000th in frequency. The
first column, labeled Rank of Median Word, is
simply the frequency rank of the average word
(after a small correction) in each of the categories.
So, for example, the average word in children’s
books was ranked 627th most frequent in
the Carroll et al. word count; the average word
in popular magazines was ranked 1,399th most
frequent; and the average word in the abstracts
of scientific articles had, not surprisingly, a very
low rank (4,389).
