    Hi,

    I am forwarding a question of a friend of mine (Michael Frank, please
    respond to him; I cc-ed him). He is interested in the most frequent German
    singular-plural pairs (actually he is only interested in those pairs that
    don't have English cognates, see below). Does anyone have an idea how to
    get a hold of, say, the 300 most frequent pairs or even more generally
    frequency lists of German nouns?

    Thx a lot in advance,

    Florian (the forwarded message is attached below)

    What I'm looking for, most specifically, is the 100 most frequent
    non-english cognate object words and their pairings, and I'm looking for
    whichever part of the pairing is most frequent. So I can just take a list
    of 300 or more frequent nouns and eliminate the cognates and the object
    words. Then I'll need to find the plurals, although a plural list would
    save me a lot of dictionary time. Does that make things clearer?
