Corpus analysis for Decays

  • In this selection, "decays" usually appears in the middle of the sentence. The average example has 25.3 words, and this corpus slice is mostly made up of statements.
  • Around the word, beta, tissue, indeed, electromagnetically, rapidly and relatively stand out and add context to how "decays" is used.
  • Recognizable usage signals include about facilities decays and the and and infrastructural decays do not. That gives this page its own corpus information beyond isolated example sentences.
  • By corpus frequency, "decays" sits close to words such as adjudged, aggravating and alamos, which helps place it inside the broader word index.
