Description
The material is available at the Language Bank of Finland (Kielipankki) download service, access location http://urn.fi/urn:nbn:fi:lb-2018081602.
This material comprises a dataset and a query tool for acquiring commonly used psycholinguistic descriptives for Finnish words. The dataset is based on six large corpora from sources such as magazines, newspapers, movie and tv-series subtitles, encyclopedia topics and Internet discussions.
The material includes word surface form frequencies, lemma frequencies, syllable frequencies and letter n-gram frequencies. In addition the query tool can be used to acquire descriptives such as orthographic neighbors for lists of words. More information on the datasets and the query tool can be found in the readme file.
