  Here is something interesting. I am not sure whether it has been mentioned and debated before.
  
  Take words that have an  l mid-word and split them at the  l.  The segments will be seen themselves to be common words.
  
  The tables below show the frequencies of these segments together with their frequency as separate words. For instance, the word  ol occurs 723 times and a further 894 words start   ol.  193 words end  ldy and the word  dy  occurs 369 times.
  
  So either  l mid-word indicates that it is the last character of a word and that the writer has joined it with the following word, or else the word has been artificially constructed to be formed of two common and independent words.
  
  
  
     
  List of the initial segments.
  
  
     
  List of the final segments.

  Possibly related: the role of final -l in unexpected and ambiguous spaces, as discussed in Patrick's ruminations
