ItaPref

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

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).
