年代別単語頻度グラフ

このグラフは、1900年からの単語出現頻度の推移を示しています。値は ×10⁻⁸ スケールで表示されています。

数字の動きとしては、1985年付近に山があり、近年は昔の約0.7倍で現れやすいように見えます。 時代をまたいで粘り強い語彙に見えます。 一方向の物語より、文脈ごとの揺れがある語に見えます。 昔は1960?70年代に峯が立ち(平均ピーク年が約1967年、中央値は1981年)、今は1990年代以降のデジタル/グローバル期に別の波が増えているように見えます。特定の出来事だけでなく、出版媒体や分野の広がりの影響も考えられます。 もちろん頻度だけでは語義領域は断定できず、媒体やジャンルの偏りも影響し得ます。 この波を味方にすると、単語との距離が少し縮まるはずです。
