Senjecan lexicon Posted by: "C. Brickner" tepeyach...@embarqmail.com Date: Mon Aug 5, 2013 6:52 pm ((PDT)) Hi! I have finally finished counting the number of words in the Senjecan lexicons. Counting only the lemmata, there are 3,418 words. Counting compounds and derivative words the total would be 3-4 times greater. Some time ago there was a thread about the percentage of verbs in a lexicon. I have figured that out. 49% of the lemmata are verbs. What is the significance of that, if any?

But aren't nouns more likely to be derived or compounds? Messages in this topic (2) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Yahoo!
