I'm legitimately unsure of this one. I found it in the Plena Ilustrita Vortaro, but I am unsure what their sources for it were. Finsternish (talk) 20:44, 20 January 2018 (UTC)

Yeah, you can't trust PIV to not make stuff up, because it's not strictly descriptive. Some time ago I started adding the BRO to da.wikt and using PIV to get a list of derived terms, but at some point I realized that the latter weren't all citable, and switched to using these frequency lists.__Gamren (talk) 16:44, 24 January 2018 (UTC)

Note that those frequency lists are pretty limited; they're based on some pre-1923 materials plus some modern translations (mostly of old works) released freely. Also, there's a pretty heavy English/Western bias; Zamenhofian works, the British Esperantist and those modern translations from the English and from Ibsen make up the dominant set. Any ideas that needed words since the 1920s are unlikely to be included.--Prosfilaes (talk) 21:33, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
