SIMPLE WORD FREQUENCY ANALYSIS IN CORPORA

Main Article Content

Аннотация:

This article covers the theoretical foundations, practical steps, and scope of simple word frequency analysis, which is one of the most widely used and basic quantitative methods in corpus linguistics. As simple as it may seem, frequency analysis plays an important role in determining the distribution of lexical units, the content structure of the text, the author's style, genre differences, and the real use of language units. This study extensively analyzes methodological aspects such as corpus selection, text processing, tokenization, normalization, stopword extraction, lemmatization options, and the interpretation of indicators. It also discusses how the results can be used in linguistics, lexicography, education, and natural language processing. Along with the advantages of frequency analysis, its limitations are also highlighted, and it is emphasized that this method is becoming a foundation for other complex corpus methods.
