[Text] word starting [q] must have a valid counterpart word starting [o]

[davidjackson]

So are we in agreement that q not followed by o is less than 3% of the total in all transcriptions?
Because that is well within any possible transcription error rate. It's worth pointing out that in some Romance languages (French, Spanish) the qu rule is that the u  is mute (with exceptions).
Although come to think of it, in Spanish it is usually followed by the vowels e or i.
Does anyone have an analysis of the q?? trigram?
