From the book Quantitative Approaches to Universality and Individuality in Language

Quantitative linguistic research reveals fascinating patterns in contemporary and historical linguistic data. The book offers insights from a broad range of languages, including Japanese, Slovene and Catalan. The reader is convinced that statistic empirical analysis – and increasingly also machine learning and big data – should be an essential part of any serious linguistic enquiry.

En aquest capítol de llibre hem fet una revisió de les principals lleis lingüístiques (Zipf, Menzerath-Altmann, Heaps-Herdan…) en diferents nivells lingüístics (fonemes, paraules, grups de respiració) presents en el català oral i escrit (corpus Glissando).
