Vord length distribution

[Anton]

Here's a quick check of word type length distribution for UDHR in Russian and Latin, I conveniently had source files already from my former entropy experiments and used those (all headings and punctuation removed, converted to lowercase).

The results are not encouraging, besides far from normal, they are both multimodal.

The vocabulary size is small though (700 for Russian, 672 for Latin). Larger texts should be taken...

   

EDIT: In Stolfi, word types are not multimodal for any language
