Russian word frequency dictionaries

[Mike Berry]

Here are two ideas:
Lonngren, Lennart, ed., A frequency dictionary of Modern
Russian,Studia Slavica Uppsaliensia, 32, Uppsala, 1993.
Nicholas J. Brown, Russian Learners' Dictionary: 10,000 words in
Frequency Order, Routledge, London and NY, 1996
Both of these give references to earlier frequency dictionaries.
I am currently processing the results of a frequency count of around
a million words of 1997 newspaper materials, but it will be some
time before it is completed, though I could probably answer any
specific queries on individual words.
