Cifu is a lexical database for Hong Kong Cantonese. Each entry in the lexicon offers the following information: - the term in Chinese characters - a Jyutping romanization of the term - the frequency of the term (occurence counts and per million words) in four different genres: Written, Spoken adult, Spoken child and Child directed speech - a count of the strokes in each character in the term (as a measure of the character complexity) The resource also includes some of the resources used for creating Cifu: - a Jyutping romanization dictionary, adapted from yeDict (https://writecantonese8.wordpress.com/2012/02/04/cantonese-cedict-project/) - a list of Cantonese words taken and adapted from the one used in CLAN (https://childes.talkbank.org/)
