Lament from the Sea, New Method! f2r

[stellar]

Actually this means that for a short sentence of five words, you can choose from 2430000000000 different translations. Indeed, the number of possible translations for a sentence of about ten words is much greater than the amount of stars in the universe, or grains of sand on earth.

Hi Koen,

Can you please show your calculation.  I don't understand when 1 word out 200 in a search, seems to me only 200 possibilities.  Where do you get 2430000000000?

Stellar, it's a factorial.

For the first word, there are 200 possibilities. But then you add the second word and there are another 200 possibilities that can be added to EACH of the first 200 possibilities. See how that becomes a huge number very quickly, even when there are only three words?

Well the meaning I'm deriving using association for sentence or phrase structure seems to have some correlation.
