             <h3><a href="hapax.html">Hapax</a> legomenon, or <em>You are special</em></h3>
             <p><em>Hapax legomenon</em> (<a href="http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus:text:1999.04.0057:entry=a%28/pac">ἅπαξ</a> λεγόμενον) is Greek for “something said only once.” It comes from the field of corpus linguistics, where it causes problems for translators of ancient texts. Because it only happens once in its corpus, a <em>hapax legmonenon</em> is an enigma: there’s only one context to guess its meaning from. This means that many <em>hapax legomena</em> remain untranslated, as in Mayan tablets, or are questionably translated, as in the Bible.</p>
             <p>Given the way we use language every day, treading over the same words and thoughts in a way that is nonetheless comforting, and given the fact that a <em>hapax legomenon</em> is, by its definition, the rarest word in the place it appears, you might think that <em>hapax legomena</em>, as phenomena, are rare. You’d be wrong. In the Brown Corpus of American English Text, which comprises some fifty thousand words, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hapax_legomenon#cite_note-6">about half are <em>hapax legomena</em></a>. In most large corpora, in fact, between forty and sixty per cent of the words occur only once, and another ten to fifteen per cent occur only twice, a fact that I imagine causes translators all sorts of <a href="one-hundred-lines.html">grief</a>.</p>

His chance of being born was <a href="dollywood.html">something</a> like one in 10<sup>2,685,000</sup>. The thing is, a number like one in 10<sup>2,685,000</sup> stops meaning so much when we take the number of times such a “rare” event occurs. There are about seven billion (or <math display="inline" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"><semantics><mrow><mn>7</mn><mo>×</mo><msup><mn>10</mn><mn>9</mn></msup></mrow><annotation encoding="application/x-tex">7 \times 10^{9}</annotation></semantics></math>) people on Earth—and all of them have that same small chance of one in 10<sup>2,685,000</sup> of being born.

             <p>For these files, I opted to use John McFarlane’s <a href="http://johnmcfarlane.net/pandoc/">pandoc</a> over the original <code>Markdown.pl</code> compiler, because it’s more consistent with edge cases in formatting, and because it can compile the Markdown source into a wide variety of different formats, including DOCX, ODT, PDF, HTML, and others. I use an <a href="https://github.com/duckwork/autocento/blob/gh-pages/template.html">HTML template</a> for <code>pandoc</code> to correctly typeset each object in the web browser. The compiled HTML pages are what you’re reading now.</p>
