Good idea though, per language seems the best way to go since the size of the languages is so varied.
Great point.

stock, stock broker

stock broker, stock

The former shows (stock broker:stock) 1:100 while the latter shows a (presumably) more accurate 1:142.

Of course, using quotes is even better at 1:176.
