Subject: word form list from arabiCorpus

A couple of people asked me about a word frequency list from arabiCorpus.  Of course, arabiCorpus is an unlemmatized corpus, so it is impossible to create a word frequency list for it.  However, it is possible to create a 'word form' list, meaning that every distinct graphemic word form is counted separately.  This means that يكتب is counted separately not only from تكتب, but also from ويكتب، يكتبه، , فيكتب, ليكتب, etc.  Anyway, I have produced such a list, and have made it available for download at the following url: 

arabiCorpus.byu.edu/wordFormListSource.html

Once you get there, click on the folder, click on the file you want to download, and choose 'more' from the sub-menu, which lets you choose 'download'.  There is an info file which explains what the different files are.
