It would be good if we could construct a baseline that cuts out all the clutter.
I'm thinking we could locate the most common form for "and" in a range of languages, European but also some plausible others like Turkic and Arabic. Collect a corpus for each language. Calculate frequency for most common form of "and".
This will give us a range of frequencies. In a corpus of a decent size, we expect a word for "and" to appear between x and y times.
