[split] Percentage of word types that occur more than once

[Alin_J]

During a study of the VMS, I found that only a relatively small percentage of Word Types occur more than once. Can anyone confirm this ?

31.034909631% of all Word Types in the VMS occur more than once.
44.928611163% of all Word Types in the comparison text ( Regimen Sanitatis ) occur more than once.

If using the 101 transliteration (Glen Claston), the percentage of unique words (word types) that occurred more than once in the Voynich manuscript is about 28%. So, 72% of the word-types in the VMS are hapax legomenas.
