Hello the list! Does anyone have information to offer on the most
common English phrases in use in a given body of text? That is, what
4-word, 5-word (10-word, whatever) phrases appear most frequently in the
Bible, in Shakespeare, in Tom Clancy novels, in newspapers, in any known
corpora? Any information on this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
