AB - In this study, I preliminarily review and critically discuss previous studies of cover ratios in contemporary Japanese and Korean words based on comparisons of the vocabulary lists which are made from different research materials and different research conditions. Then, I research cover ratios of the two languages with the same research conditions and compare them. Also, I propose ‘change ratios’ which are correlated with research conditions.
1) With regard to the change ratios correlated with research conditions, the ratio of [the existence or non-existence of dependent functional words] is the largest with 22%, the ratio of [the length of counting units] is 5%, the ratio of [the existence or non-existence of proper words] is 3%.
2) [The existence or non-existence of dependent functional words] significantly influences the cover ratio of the highest 500-1000 words, and [the length of counting units] significantly influences the cover ratio of the highest 2000-3000 words.
3) The change ratios of Japanese and Korean words show a very similar distribution pattern, but the change ratio of Korean words is a little bit lower than that of Japanese words when those ratios cover the high-frequency words, the highest 500 words.
