Summary

Description
English: Zipf law plot (frequency as function of frequency rank) for texts in two languages Spanish and Portuguese.

The languages, texts and the frequency files are:

  • Spanish. Text of Miguel de Cervantes's novel Don Quixote - Part I (1605). . In original spelling of early 1600s, including variable use of 'v', 'u', and 'b' for the same sound. Mapped to lowercase, excluding foreign language insertions and poems. Sample: en vn lugar de la mancha de cuyo nombre no quiero acordarme no ha mucho [...] pariente suyo fuera de que. File span/qvi/one.1/gud.wfr (original 177061 words, truncated/filtered to 35027 words, N = 5452 distinct).
  • Portuguese. Text of the novel Dom Casmurro by Machado de Assis (1899). The spelling was updated to Brazilian usage as of ~2000, incuing umlaut on 'u' after 'q', accent in 'éia' endings, differential accents 'tem'/'têm', etc. Mapped to lowercase, with numerals excluded. Whole text. Sample: uma noite destas vindo da cidade para o engenho novo encontrei no trem [...] josé dias gostaram do moço o agregado disse~lhe que vira uma vez. File port/csm/tot.1/gud.wfr (original 64602 words, truncated/filtered to 35027 words, N = 6267 distinct).
The word frequency files '*/*/*/gud.wfr' are available at the UNICAMP website. The original annotated full texts, before truncation/filtering, are in the companion files */*/org/main.src. The truncated/filtered texts -- one word per line, without punctuation -- are in */*/*/gud.tlw.
