"Unregelmäßige Verben im authentischen Englisch und im Englischunterricht." Praxis des neusprachlichen Unterrichts 42 (1995) 2, 147-157. "A corpus-based learning list of irregular verbs in English." ICAME Journal 19 (1995), 5-22. "Die unregelmäßigen Verben des Englischen: eine Lernliste auf empirischer Grundlage." Die Neueren Sprachen 93 (1994) 4, 334-353. For the author of teaching materials and the teacher, the new list supplies an empirical basis for the selection and gradation of irregular verbs in language courses. The new list ensures that the learner has encountered the most important verbs, no matter when the learning process ends. Two machine-readable standard corpora of English, the BROWN corpus of American English and the Lancaster-Oslo-Bergen corpus of British English were selected to form the basis of this learning list. In the following learning list the verbs are ranked in their order of frequency in authentic English. Alphabetical lists do not, however, take into account the actual occurrence of these verbs. They are normally presented in the form of alphabetical lists. For learners of English, irregular verbs represent one of the most difficult aspects of the language.
