Names of places in Croatia

[FlatAssembler]

I don't understand what you mean. By p-value, I mean the probability of that k-r pattern in Croatian river names occurring by chance. By measuring collision entropy of the Croatian language and using the Monte Carlo birthday calculations, I have shown that the probability of that pattern occurring by chance is somewhere between 1/300 and 1/17.

But you’re continually touting (or at least implying) that p-values support your study hypothesis. P-values are only meant to test the statistical likelihood of a null hypothesis. But even if that was your null, it’s pretty pointless, since phonic patterns never arise by chance. If it did, the English word for ‘fish’ could be something like ‘grzblk’.

The mainstream linguistics claims that the river names that start with k-r (Krka, Korana, Krapina, Kravarščica, Krbavica and Karašica) are unrelated. That is the null-hypothesis. Which has been made unlikely by my calculations.

EDIT: Can you explain the part of your post that I bolded? I don't understand it?
