In the next four subsections show the most frequent sentence endings consisting of N words, N=1, 2, 3, 4. In this subsection we start with N=1.
The most frequent word-N-grams at the end of sentences give some insight into sentence composition.
Especially for N=1, we only need a small corpus to identify the most frequent sentence beginnings.
select substring_index(sentence, ' ', -1) as beg, count(*) as cnt from sentences group by substring_index(sentence, ' ', 1) order by cnt desc limit 50;
