Is there a good list of 5000/10000 most common german words?
Answering my own question :): There is a good list 5000 most common german words on memrise, but they're pretty basics and imo they're for A1 A2 levels. I also found intermediate level words, and they look pretty cool: http://www.memrise.com/course/858/intermediate-german/1/ http://www.memrise.com/course/169122/intermediate-german-3-2/ http://www.memrise.com/course/169121/intermediate-german-2-2/ More on reddit.com

Hi fellow language learners, I am building an app to help me learn Russian but now would like to add the most common 10,000 words in a few other languages.

I have this lexicon for the most common 10k words in Russian which is pretty nice

If any members on here know of similar lists in languages they are learning that can be downloaded I would really appreciate a link to the source.

Many thanks

September 3, 2025 - Some lists of common words distinguish between word forms, while others rank all forms of a word as a single lexeme (the form of the word as it would appear in a dictionary). For example, the lexeme be (as in to be) comprises all its conjugations (am, are, is, was, were, etc.), and contractions of those conjugations. These top 100 lemmas listed below account for 50% of all the words in the Oxford English Corpus. A list of 100 words that occur most frequently in written English is given below, based on an analysis of the Oxford English Corpus (a collection of texts in the English language, comprising over 2 billion words).
