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、1942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。 ベースラインとして淡々と使われ続けたタイプかもしれません。 上がり続けるでも下がり続けるでもなく、役割が変化した可能性があります。 観察の読み方:このクラスターは平均ピークが1962.9年(中央値1963年)に集中し、形は「normal」「steady」が大半で、ショック的なバーストは稀という傾向です。動員や制度語彙が膨らみやすい時期と重なり、特定領域で露出が増えた可能性があります。 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。 こういう“時代の匂い”と一緒に覚えると、単語がぐっと立体的に見えてくるはずです。
