AW: AW: VMs: RE: word length counts - addendum



Yes, but it also has the -que suffix that has the meaning "and"

Latis does have 'and' - et.

"and" does not necessarily have to be in the language. I know of one
language (Tamil) that couples words by adding -um to the stem. If I remember
correctly, Latin has a suffix like that, too.

I would bet my bottom dollar bill one of the 2 letter words means "and".

There is a question. There are methods to determine likely vowels, is there
a systematic method for trying to narrow down possible words that mean
common things such as "and", "the", etc?  While "the" does not appear in all
languages, one would think "and" would be extremely popular in most texts.

There are letter frequency counts.  Is there such a thing as a studt of word
frequency counts?

Steve,
Here's a top 25 list of two and three letter words, just for laughs.  Most
of these go on to form major elements of common longer words, so they're
worth noting.
