Extract lexical frequencies

1	jtrace_get_frequency(word, language = "English", scale = "frequency_abs")

`word`	Character vector with the orthographic word form
`language`	Character vector containing the language(s) to lookup the frequency of the words for. Must be one or more of "English", "Spanish, and/or "Catalan".
`scale`	Character vector indicating the scale(s) of the frequency scores. Must be one or more of "frequency_abs" (absolute frequency), "frequency_rel", (relative frequency, `counts/1e6`, default), or "frequency_zipf" (`log10(counts*1e6)+3`)"

A data frame containing a column for the words and one column for the SUBTLEX frequencies in each language for the same word
