One of my projects involves tracking language drift; i.e the relative
change in word frequency on the internet as time goes by. This is
useful for predicting concept movement, and the anglisization
rates of non-English language countries.
Now, one day while browsing the frequencies from the 10 billion
word corpus, what do I see?
God 2,177,242
America 2,178,046
designed 2,181,106
five 2,189,194
December 2,190,028
