Suggest to users to create custom frequency list for shows once they reach 4k words #68

Closed Vilhelm-Ian closed 9 months ago

Vilhelm-Ian commented 9 months ago

What is the current documentation?

It dosen't mention the benefit of custom frequency lists. It only says that they can make a custom frequency list.

What changes do you suggest?

https://youtu.be/ey2nsLTH1jM?t=87 you should watch a 1 or 2 from the timestap where it is. Basically someone did a calculation that after 4k words a general frequency list has diminishing returns for specific media. And to solve that problem one should generate a custom frequency list for the show. Here is an example I am currently reading the hunger games. The words mine, bow, arrow, bakery, district are not common words in general but in the book they are really common. And me knowing those words grately benefits my reading.

It dosen't have to mention the 4k mark it can just mention the benefits

Interesting! That would be a great addition to the tips & tricks section. I'll gladly accept a PR on this.

@Vilhelm-Ian should I write something about this real quick, or do you want to do it?

Liar :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

how about something like this?

=============================================================================================

Learning specific media

If you want to learn a specific piece of media, e.g. a book, a movie, etc., then using a more specialized/targeted frequency.csv can help you reach your goal faster than if you were to use a more general frequency.csv. You should only really do this after you have already learned at least the most frequent 2k morphs from a general frequency.csv--If you start to specialize too early then you can fall into the trap of 'over-fitting' your vocabulary and understanding of the language.

Great. I loved the overfitting part
