Size of ER's vocabulary   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #57 of 192 |
As I pointed out , there are 25000 words in the focloir.MDB, but not all are
separate entries. I have read that to learn a language fluently requires
10,000 words, but declined/conjugated forms of the same headwords cannot be
included as separate in this count. I wonder how many headwords are in ER?
Have you seen any handy list of the most frequent 10,000 headwords in Irish?
(I have similar lists for Chinese, Russian, Finnish and Swedish, but can't
find one for Irish.)
