โฆ Synopsis
A. Q. Morton has claimed that certain word habits, such as some collocations and proportionate pairs, show random variation in works of a single author and single genre. Conversely, the same habits may show greater than random variation in comparing different authors' works (or works in different genres).
One habit, the proportionate pair UPON and ON, illustrates Morton's claim in the well-known context of The Federalist Papers. Hamilton and Madison have internally consistent usage patterns, which differ from each other by amounts in excess of chance variation.
