Word Frequency Metric

The frequency score is derived from the Python wordfreq package. The backend reads a Zipf frequency value with zipf_frequency(word, "en"), then converts that value into this app's custom 0–100 study rating.

The displayed number is therefore not a strict dictionary rank or percentile. It is a practical study-weighting score: higher values indicate words that are more common in modern English usage.
