Character Frequencies
Using the Character Counter, it is possible to create frequency tables for letters of different texts. The Character Counter is able to process arbitrary symbol systems, alphabets and Unicode-texts. For some languages, we have created frequency profiles on the basis of texts in the languages with at least 1.5 million characters. The texts consists of different literature genres to provide the best results. Nevertheless, of course, the results would be slightly different, if other texts would be used. Of course, these profiles are available in the WordCreator, too. You can find the lists in the menu under "Syllable Lists".
