Hi everyone, I have been looking for a comprehensive German frequency list or dictionary
but I haven't had much luck. I found a couple of 1 thousand word lists but these included the same word conjugated differently. I wondered if anybody knows of some good comprehensive frequency lists/dictionaries? Thanks in advance. 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Langenscheidt has a dictionary of 4000 most frequent German words. The words are divided
into categories like life, human body, education etc. And then each category has 2 sub- groups for ranking between 1-2000 and 2001-4000 . This is more likely a vocabulary study book because it contains also example sentences for every single word.

I'm using it, I find it helpful. I think words are chosen really well. It can be useful
if you feel a gap for your vocab, especially in order to ensure yourself to be confident of your passive "word count". My reason that I use this book is that I'm a false beginner, I have been learning German with assimil and I need my vocab lack to be compensated. Resolving the gender&plural form learning problem, too. But if you are a learner who definitely needs to see words in reading texts to learn them, or if you are an audio learner, it can be boring :) 1 person has voted this message useful | |

It sounds like I'm in a similar position to you, I'm using assimil as well and trying to
find words to put into my "goldlist". Thanks for the advice I'll look into buying this book now. 1 person has voted this message useful | |

I forgot to ask, what is the title of the book? Langenscheidt seem to have a few
different ones, it's not Deutsch als Fremdsprache is it? 1 person has voted this message useful | |

It's "Basic German Vocabulary"
