Two regime analysis (CTILC and Glissando corpora).

The exponents of each regime of the Zipfian laws: the rank-frequency law (α1 and α2), the law of meaning distribution (γ1 and γ2) and meaning-frequency law (δ1 and δ2). is the exponent δ1 predicted by Eq 9 while is the exponent δ2 predicted by Eq 8. To obtain the exponents, we used LS following Baayen’s method [39]. Concerning equal-size binning, see the Methods section for the rationale behind the choice of the bin sizes. Subindexes of the exponents correspond to the regimes according to Eqs 5–7.

齐夫定律（Zipfian laws）各区间的指数：涵盖秩频律（rank-frequency law）的指数α₁与α₂、意义分布律（law of meaning distribution）的指数γ₁与γ₂，以及意义频率律（meaning-frequency law）的指数δ₁与δ₂。其中δ₁为式（9）预测得到的指数，δ₂为式（8）预测得到的指数。为获取上述指数，我们采用了遵循Baayen方法[39]的最小二乘法（Least Squares，LS）。关于等大小分箱的分箱尺寸选择依据，请参见方法部分。指数的下标对应式（5）至式（7）所定义的各个区间。
