If that's the case then Sanskrit should be on top, I mean I study it and can tell that so far I have seen that every noun has at least 27 conjugations, along with every pronoun. For example, his has 27 conjugations, it is the same for her and it. Also every verb has more than 90 conjugations, and that is after ignoring words like after _ or to _. Also there are 10 tenses and 3 numbers.

[@vidhanp482]

@@createyourownfuture5410 but thats the exact reason why korean has more. Sanskrit is an analytic language that uses conjugations on a limited number of verbs and pronouns. Korean is agglutinative which means you can add a lot of suffixes and prefixes to make entire sentences into a word or completely change the tense, meaning or connotations of the word. Korean also doesn't require a subject so each verb can be further modified to indicate a subject tho its often left to context. So much modification of a single word for not only tense cases but accusative, possessive and general cases gives Korean so many words and variations. Compared to sanskrit which depends on very conjugations and subject markers. Korean also has a lot of words because its a modern language with lots and lots of loan words. Actually one of the most loan words in the world from Chinese, Japanese and English. Sanskrit is a much older language that remained pure and unchanged for a long time, a lot of words we know today exclude those that are either lost or unused. There are also less words because back then they didn't have as many stuff and concepts as we do today and they didn't need that many words to describe the world around them.

Some languages split words into phrases, while others (like English) make a new word. For instance, in order to get 500k English words, they are counting words like _run, running, ran_ all as different words. While another language may just have one word for run, and they add a modifier word to change the tense.

This is probably inaccurate because it's possible to count the number of words one can have in a dictionary but not the number of words of any given language, especially for agglutinative languages like Filipino, Korean and Japanese. Agglutination is the process of forming words by combining morphemes, usually affixes. Because words can be so easily formed in these languages by combining words or adding affixes, it also depends on the deciding body of that language if certain words will be included in that language's dictionary or not. For example, Filipino is my mother tongue and due to the archipelagic nature and colonial history of my country, we have many borrowed words from other Filipino languages, Spanish and English despite Filipino mostly being based on Tagalog. The question is whether the dictionary this list pulled information from chose a dictionary that listed words of purely Tagalog origin OR whether they included loanwords and are recently updated (language documentation in my country is not very well executed unfortunately)

From any Finnish noun you can make a shitload of various cases, which look different from the nominative case, but I doubt these count as separate words.

One of the reasons Dutch is so high up (400,000 words) is because in Dutch instead of making a sentence to describe something you combine other, more basic words to make a larger word. In English a 15 letter word would probably only used for some obscure scientific concept, in Dutch 15 letter words are perfectly normal and acceptable.

Fun fact: "word" has no unique definition. It's specially hard given that some languages (agglutinating languages) can basically create new words all the time by joining particles.

So this is practically meaningless, and it definitely doesn't mean anything about how "difficult" a language is. Source: I'm a Linguistics major c:
