Hi everyone,
I'm interested in establishing a list of what the characteristics of the putative "Labelese" are.
You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.by Nick lists the following for the zodiac section:
"
* a disproportionately large number of zodiac labels start with EVA ‘ot’ or ‘ok’.
* words starting EVA ‘yk-‘ are also more common in zodiac labels than elsewhere
* most (but not all) zodiac labels are surprisingly short.
* many – despite their short length – terminate with EVA ‘-y’.
* a good number of zodiac labels occur multiple times.
* almost no zodiac labels start with EVA ‘qo-‘
* in many places, the zodiac labels exhibit a particularly strong ‘paired’ structure (e.g. on the Pisces f70v2 page, otolal = ot-ol-al, otaral, otalar, otalam, dolaram, okaram, etc), far more strongly than elsewhere"
Can this list be considered as a good description of the characteristics of Labelese in general? Are there more to add to the list?
