The frequency of a word type is related to the frequency of similar word types. This is a general rule for the VMS. Therefore it doesn't matter where you start. For instance the word type ar is more frequent then al and far more then an. Therefore it is expected that the frequencies for the word types ending in -ar, -al behave like the frequencies for the word types ar, al and an:

ar  (350)  oar ( 16)   qoar  ( 12)
al  (260)  oal (  3)   qoal  (  4)
an  (  7)  oan (---)   qoan  (---)

The same is true for word types ending in -dar, -dal and -dan:

dar (318)  odar ( 24)  qodar ( 11)
dal (253)  odal ( 13)  qodal (  7)
dan ( 20)  odan (  2)  qodan (  1)

It is still true for the word types kar, kal and kan but not for the word types ending in -kar, -kal and -kan. Here the types ending in -kal are more frequent then the word types ending in -kar. Note that all the types starting with o- or qo- are more frequent then the types without such a prefix:

kar ( 52)  okar (129)  qokar (152) 
kal ( 23)  okal (138)  qokal (191) 
kan (  3)  okan (  5)  qokan (  8) 

The patterns found for the word types ending in -tar, -tal and -tan are similar as for the word types ending in -kar, -kal and -kan. Note that qotar and qotal are less frequent then otar and otal.

tar ( 43)  otar (141)  qotar ( 63)
tal ( 20)  otal (143)  qotal ( 59)
tan (  1)  otan (  5)  qotan (  2)

You will found the same patterns if you replace ar with or, al with ol and an with on. The only difference is that the word types ending in -on are not only rare but missing. 

or  (363)  oor  (  3)  qoor  (  8)
ol  (537)  ool  (---)  qool  (  4)
on  (---)  oon  (---)  qoon  (---)

dor ( 73)  odor (  8)  qodor (  2)
dol (117)  odol (  2)  qodol (  1)
don (---)  odon (---)  qodon (---)

Note that for the word types ending in -kor, -kol, -tor and -tol also all the types starting with o- and qo- are more frequent then the types without such a prefix:

kor ( 26)  okor ( 34)  qokor ( 36) 
kol ( 37)  okol ( 82)  qokol (104)
kon (---)  okon (---)  qokon (---)

tor ( 23)  otor ( 46)  qotor ( 29)
tol ( 48)  otol ( 86)  qotol ( 47)
ton (---)  oton (---)  qoton (---)

With the exception of chained words like chotcheytchol there are always similar words. Similar word types occur with similar frequency. It is expected that a word type more similar to the most frequent words daiin, ol or chedy is also more frequent. The conclusion is simple. Similar word types depend on each other.
