Title: What do we talk about most often on the forum? Post by: grahame on November 03, 2020, 09:23:01 I saw "petunias" in a post earlier today ... and feeling a need for light relief from some heavy pressure stuff that's been going on ... did a little light scripting. Turns out that petunias have come up in three previous threads on the forum. On a much more serious note ... so a new thread, I have analysed the words used over the years on the forum and come up with the MOST common words. They tell you and us what we talk about From within the top 500, I have selected for you ... columns for rank - number of times - latest thread number - word. 1 1554974 24172 the 2 919988 24172 to 3 658524 24172 a 4 617646 24138 and lots of other words like "have", "which", etc ... 32 137468 24172 topic 33 131715 24172 date 38 124667 24180 train 53 77719 24176 trains noting that singulars and plurals are separated ... 54 74841 24177 service 59 66078 24179 rail 71 57918 24179 station 72 57913 24119 services 73 57097 24180 line 80 51914 22685 first 86 49692 24176 london 91 45851 24138 people 96 43724 24178 think 99 41066 24177 bristol 110 37130 15877 ticket 111 37029 16141 fgw 118 35411 24180 railway 129 33421 15037 paddington 132 31415 24175 passengers 133 31403 15037 reading 144 28749 23462 bus 150 27789 24172 car 162 25225 24179 journey 164 25118 24180 network 165 25036 19961 class 166 24910 24177 platform 167 24561 24172 transport 169 24506 24176 travel 180 22625 24172 staff 181 22534 24179 swindon 182 22447 22685 minutes 185 21719 24180 stations 194 20139 24174 road 197 20085 24146 tickets 199 19775 24176 gwr 201 19563 24177 passenger 203 19461 24172 local 207 18910 24172 however 216 17807 24174 far 226 17084 24179 public 232 16919 24167 western 237 16467 24180 melksham 250 15221 22860 problem 251 15151 24119 return 252 15131 24176 forum 253 15124 24180 lines 254 15070 23462 fares 267 13926 24174 thanks 271 13879 23753 fare 272 13821 24176 north 273 13783 24167 cardiff 289 13118 22685 timetable 293 12949 24167 exeter 294 12923 24167 using 296 12864 24153 information 304 12726 24177 bath 306 12661 24176 single 307 12592 14689 plymouth 308 12585 24123 stock 310 12384 24174 driver 315 12110 24179 government 329 11674 24159 franchise 333 11409 22685 travelling 340 11115 23462 money 349 10546 22685 buses 351 10456 24172 home 352 10455 15877 seats 353 10422 24178 couple 360 10210 24179 please 361 10191 23462 pay 362 10174 24176 size 365 10134 24167 parkway 367 10096 24172 group 370 10023 24174 temple 371 10009 24172 problems 372 9985 24119 council 375 9937 22685 cancelled 377 9853 24167 junction 385 9597 24174 meads 390 9443 24119 routes 396 9349 24177 wales 402 9276 24157 didcot 403 9244 24179 question 404 9242 23853 capacity 406 9218 22685 chippenham 408 9125 23753 wrong 409 9106 23462 city 411 9081 24177 railways 421 8938 24177 power 424 8919 24157 taunton 427 8839 24161 seat 428 8734 22685 four 435 8630 24176 firstgreatwestern 436 8607 23853 national 442 8472 24142 worcester 444 8465 22685 customer 445 8465 5508 dft 448 8387 15877 sunday 451 8355 24177 platforms 456 8271 24172 country 457 8259 24159 nothing 459 8215 22685 customers 460 8205 23853 issues 461 8197 19961 coach 462 8161 24174 town 464 8141 24174 view 468 8067 24176 sorry 473 7976 24179 england 476 7926 24176 penzance 481 7811 24172 cornwall 488 7691 24167 member 489 7630 24177 electric 490 7618 24177 crossing 492 7608 24161 police 493 7592 15877 remember 494 7554 23853 allow 495 7552 24178 wonder 497 7519 22332 advance 498 7494 24168 plans 499 7494 24172 office Please ask about other words ...

Please can we have the bottom twenty as well? Maybe a competition to guess the least-used words? As 'petunia' has gone, I nominate 'spigot'. ;D
Edit - this before I saw the other post with the list! Title: Re: What do we talk about most often on the forum? Post by: johnneyw on November 03, 2020, 11:47:44 Interesting how much "temple" and "meads" are apart in the ratings.

From various past posts ... Temple Mills Lane Temple Gate Temple Island Temple Way Temple Quay Temple Street Title: Re: What do we talk about most often on the forum?

As 'petunia' has gone, I nominate 'spigot'. ;D Edit - this before I saw the other post with the list! Your use of "spigot" was the first. "Manipulation" occurred 37 times and "manipluation" just once. "Weekly" occurred 1154 times, but "weakly" just one. "Rhubarb" has been used 162 times, but "Roobarb" just once. "Avocet" comes up 146 times, but pluralised as "Avocets" just once. Title: Re: What do we talk about most often on the forum? Post by: TonyK on November 03, 2020, 17:06:21 I was wondering about wider generic terms like, ooh, I don't know, like "buffet" or "port". And I don't think I've seen "sufficiency" on any other forum.
