Let A be a commutative algebra over the field \mathbb F2 = \mathbb Z/2. We show that there is a natural algebra homomorphism ℓ (A) → HC-_*(A) which is an isomorphism when A is a smooth algebra. Thus, the functor ℓ can be viewed as an approximation of negative cyclic homology and ordinary cyclic homology HC_*(A) is a natural ℓ (A)-module. In general, there is a spectral sequence E2 = L_*(ℓ )(A) ⇒ HC_*- (A). We find associated approximation functors ℓ+ and ℓper for ordinary cyclic homology and periodic cyclic homology, and set up their spectral sequences. Finally, we discuss universality of the approximations.
