Frequently Asked Questions

What is word frequency analysis?

What are "common words" (stop words)?
Common words (stop words) are frequently used words like "the", "is", "and", "to" that carry little meaning on their own. Excluding them helps highlight more meaningful content words.
What is lexical diversity?
Lexical diversity is the ratio of unique words to total words, expressed as a percentage. Higher diversity means more varied vocabulary. Academic writing typically scores 60-80%.
