ItaPref: Italian Ri- and Ultra- Prefix Frequency Data (zipfR)

In zipfR: Statistical Models for Word Frequency Distributions

Description

ItaRi.spc and ItaRi.emp.vgc are zipfR objects of classes tfl, spc and vgc, respectively. They contain frequency data for all verbal lemmas with the prefix ri- (similar to English re-) in the Italian la Repubblica corpus.

ItaUltra.spc and ItaUltra.emp.vgc contain the same kinds of data for the adjectival prefix ultra-.

Details

ItaRi.emp.vgc and ItaUltra.emp.vgc are empirical vocabulary growth curves, reflecting the V and V(1) development in the non-randomized corpus.

The data were manually checked, as described for ri- in Baroni (to appear).
