Introduction

Web 1T 5-gram Version 1, contributed by Google Inc., contains English word n-grams and their observed frequency counts. The length of the n-grams ranges from unigrams (single words) to five-grams. This data is expected to be useful for statistical language modeling, e.g., for machine translation or speech recognition, as well as for other uses.

Source Data

The n-gram counts were generated from approximately 1 trillion word tokens of text from publicly accessible Web pages.

Character Encoding

The input encoding of documents was automatically detected, and all text was converted to UTF8.

Tokenization

The data was tokenized in a manner similar to the tokenization of the Wall Street Journal portion of the Penn Treebank. Notable exceptions include the following:

Hyphenated word are usually separated, and hyphenated numbers usually form one token.

Sequences of numbers separated by slashes (e.g. in dates) form one token.

Sequences that look like urls or email addresses form one token.

Data Sizes

File sizes: approx. 24 GB compressed (gzip'ed) text files Number of tokens: 1,024,908,267,229 Number of sentences: 95,119,665,584 Number of unigrams: 13,588,391 Number of bigrams: 314,843,401 Number of trigrams: 977,069,902 Number of fourgrams: 1,313,818,354 Number of fivegrams: 1,176,470,663
