  Hooray! Smile  I found a way to form a meaningful text with statistical characteristics specific to VMS. (frequent repetition of words in the sentence, small changes in words in the sentence, successive repetitions of words ...) Tongue
According to Russian laws, the use of non-normative vocabulary (mat) is prohibited in the mass media and public places. Such the root word are five. But given the prefixes, suffixes, declensions, conjugations of such words, you can count more than 500. And, depending on the context, these words can have different meanings.
I'm familiar with a young man who is very fond of telling interesting stories in a strictly male company. In doing so, he does not just use profanity, but namely "speaks of mat" (говорит матом), when in the sentence more than half of the words - this is an abnormal vocabulary!
If the dictaphone record of his stories is literally translated into a written form, then we get a structure close to VMS! Big Grin
