If you want to know about the size of the vocabulary of a language, how about Scrabble?
How many words are in the French game?
There are 378,989 words from 2 to 15 letters-long valid in French.
How many words are in the English game?
There are 267,751 words from 2 to 15 letters-long valid in English.
How many words are in the Spanish game?
There are 636,599 words form 2 to 15 letters-long valid in Spanish.
The official Romanian list approved by our Scrabble federation contains 610.767 words.
The English language doesn't seem that impressive.
