common_words {proceduralnames}

999 of the most common words in the English language

Description

A data set containing 999 of the most common words in the English language. Note that the source does not mention provenance of the list and has been critiqued for diverging from typical lists of the most common words in the English language; as such, this data set is referred to as "common words" rather than "the most common words". The word "slave" has been omitted from the list to avoid insensitive procedural name generation.

Usage

common_words

Format

A character vector with 999 elements, each representing a single word commonly used in the English language.
