Evaluating lists of high-frequency words

ITL - International Journal of Applied Linguistics, 2016
This study compared the lexical coverage provided by four wordlists [West’s (1953) General Service List (GSL), Nation’s (2006) most frequent 2,000 British National Corpus word families (BNC2000), Nation’s (2012) most frequent 2,000 British National Corpus and Corpus of Contemporary American-English word families (BNC/COCA2000), and Brezina and ...

Primary Children's Recognition of High-Frequency Words

The Elementary School Journal, 1972
The value of the widely used Dolch List has been challenged. Johnson has questioned the list. It was constructed from studies done in the 1920's and has not been updated, though almost half a century has passed since the list was compiled. (1). The vocabulary of the English language changes. The frequency with which certain words are used changes.

The Misreading of High-Frequency Words

The Journal of Special Education, 1978
While the misreading of visually similar words has been thought to lie in a visual-perceptual deficit, recent research has seriously undermined such hypotheses. This study suggests that such errors are more typically a function of a lack of effective and efficient integration of semantic and syntactic cues with visual information.

The Visual “Confusability” of High-frequency Words

Journal of Learning Disabilities, 1977
This study examines the visual “confusability” of selected high-frequency words. Beginning readers were presented 120 words in a match-to-sample task in an attempt to provide data on the relative discriminability of each. The results indicate these young subjects had mastered this task to a high level of proficiency.

Effect of L2 exposure, length of study, and L2 proficiency on EFL learners’ receptive knowledge of form–meaning connection and collocations of high-frequency words

Language Teaching Research, 2023
High-frequency words are single-words at the first three 1,000-word frequency levels. No studies have explored the impact of current second language (L2) exposure, length of study, and L2 proficiency on the receptive knowledge of high-frequency words of ...

The Importance of Extended High-Frequency Speech Information in the Recognition of Digits, Words, and Sentences in Quiet and Noise

Ear and Hearing, 2021
Objectives: In pure-tone audiometry, hearing thresholds are typically measured up to 8 kHz. Recent research has shown that extended high-frequency (EHF; frequencies >8 kHz) speech information improves speech recognition.

Efficient unsupervised extraction of words categories using symmetric patterns and high frequency words

2010 International Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Education (ICAIE), 2010
This paper presents a novel approach for discovering and extracting sets of words sharing semantic meaning. We utilize meta-patterns of high frequency words and content words in order to discover pattern candidates. Symmetric patterns are then identified using graph-based measures, and word categories are created based on graph clique sets.

Morpheme Frequency in Academic Words: Identifying High-Utility Morphemes for Instruction

Literacy Research and Instruction, 2019
Knowledge of morphemes, the smallest meaningful units within words, contributes to word reading skills, vocabulary, and text comprehension. However, selecting which morphemes to teach can present a challenge for teachers.

Voice onset time is shorter in high-frequency words

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2005
Frequency of occurrence is known to have many effects on speech production [see J. Bybee, Phonology and Language Use (Cambridge, 2001)] including vowel quality, overall duration, rate of deletion, assimilation, coarticulation, etc. The current work addresses voice-onset time (VOT) in words with differing lexical frequency estimates from published ...
