Word Count

The WordCount website presents the 86,800 most frequently used English words, ranked in order of commonality. Each word is scaled to reflect its frequency relative to the words that precede and follow it, giving a visual barometer of relevance. The larger the word, the more we use it.

The word Birth is ranked 1964 (the year I was born). Spooky!
