AFAIK, no one has found a natural language that explains any of these statistical properties:
- Major inconsistencies in basic glyph and glyph-bigram, trigram statistics between pages, sections.
- Currier "language" drift and "dialects",
- Word pairs statistics: You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.
- Frequent local similarities (reduplication and almost-reduplication) including insanely high levels of clustering of k/t gallows especially in Currier B, You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.
- Patterns across word breaks, by Emma M.S. and Marco P. You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.
- "Vertical pairs" by Tavie You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.
- Patrick Feaster's several statistical discoveries are yet to be explained by a quantitative study of any language,
- p/f gallows presence mostly on the first line of paragraphs,
- The absence of (function) words that are common in every section,
- I'm certainly forgetting others...
