Waiting for Stolfi to post his study on conditional entropy of words. Perfectly normal?

My quick check: yes, similar to Latin.

Quote:In natural languages words like "pink" will be more often followed by a word like "flower" than some random word like "travel". In VM it doesn't happen.

It does: "or aiin" etc. Less than in most languages but word order is far from random.
