German Frequency List Problem?!
I find the frequency list star system very puzzling!
How come that the pronoun "Ich" and the adjective "Mussen" and "Haben" rated two stars but the adverb "irgendwo" is 4 star?!
And what does the number after the # means?
The more stars the word has the more frequent it is or the opposite?
Can you explain the frequency system for me and how can I make my own list for Migaku?

Default has an issue. They said they were going to remove it for that reason and they did not. I can send you my lists. These are basically the same but they have some with smaller data sets and another mislabeled.

The ones in migaku mixed up two of the lists but these are fine.
Download the files and you be able to out it in upload them to Migaku.
