Abstract
By resuming and extending an original method for verifying natural language stationarity, the paper presents a study on statistical structures of words and word diagrams (groups of two successive words) in printed Romanian. The paper also contains an evaluation of natural language redundancy based on word diagrams. The experimental study was carried out on a literary linguistic corpus of novels and short stories summing up over 12.5 million words with orthography and punctuation marks.
