Notes
*I would have listed même meaning "even," "same," and "self" separately, but they were combined in the source document.
Words with different grammatical functions (such as tout: adjective and tout: pronoun) are usually listed separately.
The word ben was number 67, but since it's just an interjection with no real meaning, I left it out of my list.
