User talk:Hermitd

Hi there. Could you please make those word lists subpages of your User page, or of Wiktionary:Frequency lists. Cheers. SemperBlotto 15:00, 14 August 2011 (UTC)

• Hi there again. If it is not too much trouble, could you wikify the words (enclose them in double square brackets (see the Romanian list as an example). Then red links show us what words have not been entered yet. Cheers. SemperBlotto 16:07, 14 August 2011 (UTC)
• Is it any better now ? i have added character set prefix, the locale 2 char code and finally the entry

By the way, you can create pages directly in your userspace (like User:Hermitd/something) — you don't have to create them in the main dictionary space and then move them! Equinox ◑ 17:18, 14 August 2011 (UTC)

lol... i am sorry... still learning the tricks... let me try with next submission.. dont know if Greek went through or not

• Yes it did. I've moved it to "Wiktionary:Frequency lists‎/" SemperBlotto 17:24, 14 August 2011 (UTC)
• My bad.. did a search for it.. couldnt find it so created one under by user space :) Next time let me create it directly under frequency lists Hermit Dave 09:08, 20 October 2011 (UTC)

Finnish

Hey, thanks for the frequency list. All we had before you contributed was a frequency list generated from some Finnish newspapers, so it was overly formal and world-news oriented. This gives me a far better look at the colloquial language. I'm here on Wiktionary mainly to learn the language, so your list is a big help. ~ heyzeuss 12:13, 15 August 2011 (UTC)

I am glad to hear that my contribution has been helpful :) Hermitd 12:29, 15 August 2011 (UTC)

Hi, Thank you very much for the frequency list, if you haeve time can you share how you did it.

Hi,

Thank you for your great work. I was wondering how I can get a bigger list in Turkish and Polish. Also I have a big list in Hebrew.

how big a list do you want ? (i have large lists for turkish, polish and hebrew) Hermit Dave 09:08, 20 October 2011 (UTC)

100K in Turkish and polish. Thanks http://invokeit.co.uk/FrequencyWordLists.aspx you can find them here (50K) and many more. Hermit Dave 09:08, 20 October 2011 (UTC)

Turkish

Thanks for your work. I've been looking for something like this. I'd like to get a 50K Turkish word list if possible.Jsfarland 19:22, 1 October 2011 (UTC)

I have tried to upload larger word list before and its a nightmare. Let me contact one of the moderators and see if there's another way. Hermit Dave 09:08, 20 October 2011 (UTC)

Is there anyway you could email me the complete data? I'd like to revise the list to eliminate foreign words and duplicate forms of the same lexeme. Because Turkish is an agglutinative language the final result will be far shorter.Jsfarland 19:05, 2 October 2011 (UTC)

I have upload good couple of lists on my website. So far you need direct link to download them. http://invokeit.co.uk/FrequencyWordLists.aspx its all yours Hermit Dave 09:08, 20 October 2011 (UTC)

Great! I appreciate your help a lot.Jsfarland 06:19, 6 October 2011 (UTC)

Re email

Hi there. The only thing wrong with your external lists is the names. They do not have a final qualifier that shows what software to use to open them - .txt would probably be OK. SemperBlotto 15:20, 5 October 2011 (UTC)

• I have prepared Wiktionary:Frequency lists/Italian50k‎ based on your Italian list. There are a number of dodgy entries - lowercase names, lack of accents, and two words joined together with an apostrophe are the three largest classes. It is, of course, incredibly BIG! SemperBlotto 15:39, 5 October 2011 (UTC)

I will rename the files to .txt. The problem is that i programmatically generated these using public opensubtitles file. I dont have any means of cleaning them - if you know any tools, i would gladly clean them up. Hermit Dave 09:08, 20 October 2011 (UTC)

thx

Thank you for your wordlists. We're using them at nl.wikt to find missing words. Curious 13:06, 16 October 2011 (UTC)

Georgian word list

Hi, Hermit.

I wonder if it would be possible to compile a list of the 1000 most used Georgian words? Do you think you could you do that? Cheers, Malafaya (talk) 13:53, 15 April 2012 (UTC)

Let me see what I can do

Norwegian words list

Hey Hermitd, great job with the list! Would it be too much of a hassle to create a downloadable PDF, so I (and others) could print it out to learn? Best regards, Judyta

Linking template malfunctioning

Firstly, thank you for your fantastic work generating all these lists. I noticed that the hyperlinks over at Wiktionary:Frequency lists/Icelandic wordlist were showing "node-count limit exceeded" from entry #2381 (taki) onwards (i.e. more than half of the total entries). I have changed the {{l}} template to simple wikilinks (same method as employed for example at Appendix:Frequency dictionary of the modern Russian language (the Russian National Corpus)) so that at least the links now work. The downside is that these hyperlinks lose the #icelandic redirect of the former method. If this is unsatisfactory, feel free to revert or substitute a better fix if you can. Perhaps there is a better way to implement the original template or even tabulate the data? Cheers --Helrasincke (talk) 00:32, 13 December 2021 (UTC)

Well, nevermind, I've discovered that Wiktionary:Frequency lists/Finnish wordlist has just used the #language redirect in the wikilink itself. Guess I should have noticed this before. Anyway, no need for further action on this one if you're happy with that. Cheers--Helrasincke (talk) 00:46, 13 December 2021 (UTC)
