For example, <em>foo</em> is not a valid English word, so it is not in the CELEX. In contrast, <em>abacuses</em> is a valid English word, but it never occurred in the corpus from which CELEX gets its frequencies. Words with 0 frequency will have a <tt>0</tt> in the frequency column (field). A word frequency of 0 means that the word exists, but that it was not found in the corpus.

There is no word in the second field? then do we need to use regex to solve this? In Q. 11, what is meant by word frequency is 0?
