The New General Service List (new-GSL)2494 words, by frequency or alphabetical

This page gives information on the new-GSL (New General Service List) by Vaclav Brezina and Dana Gablasova, first looking at what the new-GSL is, then giving information on how it differs from other lists (such as the GSL), and finally presenting a complete list of words in the new-GSL.


To explore the list more fully, try the new-GSL highlighter (on this site).


What is the new-GSL?

The new-GSL (New General Service List), developed in 2013 by Vaclav Brezina and Dana Gablasova of Lancaster University, is a list of 2494 words which occur frequently in a range of texts. It is intended to be a major update of the much older General Service List (GSL). It should not be confused with the list developed by Browne, Culligan and Phillips, also in 2013, also called the New General Service list (their list is abbreviated NGSL, while the one by Brezina and Gablasova is abbreviated new-GSL).


The new-GSL was developed from four corpora of English: the LOB (1 million words, dating from 1961), the British National Corpus or BNC (100 million, from the 1990s), the BE06 (1 million words, dating from 2005-2007), and EnTenTen12 (12 billion words, from 2012). Words for the new-GSL were chosen based on three criteria: frequency in the four corpora; dispersion, i.e. how evenly spread the words were across different texts; and distribution, i.e. how evenly distributed the words were across all four corpora.


Based on these criteria, the authors developed a core list of 2122 words, which had a similar rank in all four corpora. In order to ensure that they included newer words, which may have been absent from the two older corpora, they added 378 words which were common in the two newer corpora (BE06 and EnTenTen12) but not the other two. This combined list of 2494 words is the one which comprises the new-GSL.


How does the new-GSL differ from other lists?

The new-GSL differs from the GSL in several ways. The first is that it uses only inflected forms of words (called lemmas), rather than extended word families. The argument in favour of word families, as used by the GSL (and also the AWL), is that, once one form is known, others can easily be understood. This however is not always the case. The authors give the following examples of word family related pairs which are quite different in meaning: train / trainers, please / unpleasantly, value / invaluable, and part / particle. The NGSL, developed at the same time as the new-GSL, is also lemma-based.


The new-GSL also differs from the GSL in that it is more up-to-date. The GSL, although dating from 1953, is actually based on lists that originated in 1936. It includes several very old-fashioned words such as cart, shilling, servant, footman, milkmaid and telegraph while omitting more recent words such as television, computer and Internet. Although two of the corpora used to design the new-GSL are somewhat dated, the authors included more recent common words by looking at frequent words in the newer two corpora which do not appear in the other two.


Many critics of the AWL claim that, at least for more frequent words, it is actually an extension of the GSL, since in designing the AWL, words from the GSL were excluded. This is supported by findings of the authors of the new-GSL. 97 words from the AWL appear in the first 1000 words of the new-GSL, over 60 of them in sublists 1 and 2. These include some very common words such as area, computer, environment, final, individual, major and section.


By using a lemma-based approach, rather than word families, the new-GSL ranks words more precisely. The following are pairs which appear in the same word family in the GSL but which are separate in the new-GSL. In each case, the first word appears in the first 1000 words, while the other form is much less frequent, falling outside the first 1000 words (rank is given in brackets).

  • write (213) vs writing (1618)
  • pay (228) vs payment (1355)
  • able (252) vs unable (1379)
  • appear (279) vs appearance (1,263)
  • read (316) vs reader (1069)
  • special (377) vs specialist (1840)
  • industry (553) vs industrial (1582)
  • exist (708) vs existence (1556)

A final and very crucial difference is that while both the new-GSL and the GSL give similar coverage of the corpora (80.1% to 81.7% for the former, 80.1% to 84.1% for the latter), the new-GSL does so by using far fewer lemmas overall, 2494 compared to approximately 4100 for the GSL. This greatly reduces the learning load on students.


It should be noted that while the EnTenTen12 corpus is international, the other three are corpora of British English, and while the BNC includes a spoken component, the others are entirely written English. As such, the new-GSL is mainly a word list of British written English.

The new-GSL: alphabetical

Below are the 2494 headwords in the New General Service List (new-GSL). The word class for each is given. In total, there are: 1204 nouns (n), 548 verbs (v), 368 adjectives (adj), 187 adverbs (adv), 74 prepositions/conjunctions (con), 49 determiners/quantifiers/particles (det), 39 pronouns (pron), 10 modals (modal), 9 adverbial particles (adv part), 5 abbreviations (abbrev), and one use of to as an infinitive marker (inf).


This list is in alphabetical order, though the list in frequency order may be more useful.
