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、1945年付近に山があり、近年は昔の約1.1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。 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。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。 別の説明(語義変化や競合語の台頭)でも似た形は作れます。 “なぜこの形?”と一歩立ち止まれるだけで、語彙がただの暗記じゃなくなります。
