Well, I had previously mentioned that I was looking to improve my voc abulary. Anyway, there is a German-English online dictionary called ht tp://www.dict.cc. It is a nice website (along with http://dict.leo.org , which is another great one). Anyway, today I emailed the author of t he site, asking if I could see his server statistics to find the most commonly searched words. 3 hours later he responds, and he compiled th e list of words himself!
For those of you interested, the list is here:
http://www.dict.cc/?s=about%3Amost-requested&l=e (Note, rude words do show up high on the list, so expect them). Also, the author of the site, in all his coolness, also makes the ent ire dictionary available for download. http://www.dict.cc/?s=about%3Aw ordlist
Of course, learning an entire dictionary is insane and impossible. Ho wever, learning the 2500 most searched words is probably a great step towards fluency.
Over the next couple of days, I will be writing a computer program to process and help me learn these words. Oh, I am so excited. Yippy yay . He he.
Time for me to go eat some food and watch some TV (yes, watching TV i s a healthy activity now, because it helps me learn the language).
