A peculiar feature of the language involves its relationship with silent consonants. Linguistic analysis reveals that the frequency of silent letters in written French is inversely proportional to the perc… -

The reconstructed Linear Gamma script is characterized by its rigid, rectilinear structure, favoring straight lines and near-perfect right angles, leading to its modern nomenclature. Unlike the curvilinear nature of Linear A, Gamma glyphs exhibit a pronounced adherence to Cartesian coordinates, leading scholars to speculate on a possible influence from early [Mesopotamian clay tablet standardization techniques](/entries/mesopotamian-clay-tablet-standardi…

Textual Density and the Aura Index ($\mathcal{A}I$)
Textual density-the average number of distinct graphemes per standardized metric unit of space-is a critical factor in reader fatigue and comprehension rates. Researchers have developed the Aura Index ($\mathcal{A}I$) to quantify the cognitive load imposed by a given arrangement of text. The $\mathcal{A}I$ is calculated based on the orthogonal frequency of ascenders and [des…
