Description

The Dickinson College Commentaries Core Latin and Ancient Greek Vocabularies represent the most common words in Latin and Ancient Greek, based on large hand-analyzed data sets. The Latin list has roughly a thousand headwords or lemmas, the Greek five hundred. These account for approximately 70-80% of the word forms found in a typical text, excluding proper names. For Caesar's Gallic War, the figure is 91%; for Vergil's Aeneid, 81%. 66% of the words in Sophocles' Antigone are in the DCC Greek core, while the figure for Plato's Euthyphro is 82%. The words appear sorted in two ways, alphabetically and by frequency. Projects using the DCC Core Vocabularies include EULALIA (European Latin Linguistic Assessment), Classical Association of the Middle West and South Latin Translation Exam, IB Classical Greek Standard Level, and The Bridge at Haverford College.
