Tracking The (English) Words We Use

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the interesting-models dept.

Zugok writes "Wordcount.org has an interactive presentation of the 86,800 most frequently used English words. In addition they have Query Count which is a dynamic database of what are the most queried words on Wword Count. Then there is the conspiracy corner where certain words seems to end up in some sort of eerie order. Cowboy comes 14834 and Neal comes 18928. Bebop comes 70673."

    but Windows ranks at a disturbing 1169. ;-)

    Everyone has windows in their house. And office building or other workplace. And their car. Etc., so on and so forth.

    Could be they're not talking about MS Windows when they say "windows".
