Thorndike–Lorge list

an early and influential list of word frequencies in the English language, compiled in 1944. There have been many subsequent updated lists, but this term is still sometimes used generically to mean an empirical list of word frequencies in a language. [Edward L. Thorndike and Irving D. Lorge (1905–1961), U.S. psychologists]
