Here is a better version of the statistics from the last post, and I also searched with/without spaces:
(With spaces):
(Without spaces):
(With spaces):
- <l> appears 10,518 times in Takahashi's text. In 5.4 out of 10 times (5693 cases), it appears before <o>, and about 3 out of 10 times (3091 cases), it appears before <a>.
So almost 85% of the time that <l> appears in the VMS, it is either in an <al> or <ol> combination.
- <r> appears 7456 times. In 3244 of those cases, it is in an <ar> combination, and in 2820 cases it appears in <or>.
So, 81% of the time in the VMS, <r> is either in an <ar> or <or> combination.
- <d> appears 12,973 times. In 6850 cases, it is followed by <y>.
- <k> appears 10,934 times, but in 6120 cases it is in the combination <ok>.
- <t> appears 6944 times in the entire VMS, but in 3884 of those times it is in the combination <ot>.
- <q> appears 5423 times in the entire VMS, but in 5290 (97.5%) of those times it is in the combination <qo>.
- <qo> appears 5290 times in the entire VMS, but in 3116 of those times the next letter is <k>, and in 1130 cases, the next letter is <t>.
So 80% of the time that <qo> appears, it is in a <qok> or <qot> combination.
