We believe that the quality of text used was poor and therefore spelling errors are common. One obvious problem however is that these words are in "Computer Hungarian" without accents or the special characters. While during collection, internet's headings, and signature blocks were removed, there is a lot of computerese, and loan words still left in the It really requires someone to correct the words, which we cannot do. Each word is followed by the frequency of occurrence in the text examined, in a pale imitation of the Brown corpus. This was performed using two utilities which I have placed in the Public Domain "one word" and "uniq_num" which and are to be found in the directory "utilities". This is the result of a project which only required some tens of thousands of words, which is now complete. Should anyone want to continue the project, good luck, get on with it! soc.culture.hungary contains text from many authors and on many subjects, there are many more words available. I am interested in wordlists for any unusual language and am collecting several. If you know of any please let me know. Dave Fawthrop Hyphen House, 8 Cooper Grove, Shelf, Halifax, HX3 7RF, England.
