About our word lists
The word lists are based on an enormous multi-billion word collection of texts called a corpus. The texts include a large variety of topics and text types. The word lists were generated using Sketch Engine, a tool designed to process a large amount of text from the linguistic point of view. Sketch Engine includes a tool which can recognize parts of speech (noun, verb etc.) and also grammatical categories (singular/plural, past/present etc.). Sketch Engine is also able to identify which words are forms of the same word (lemmatization). For example, Sketch Engine knows that knives is the plural of knife. These sophisticated algorithms guarantee the highest possible quality of the word lists.
