“Usage of article” reference

The intro contains a link to a Google ngram to indicate historical usage of “the Ukraine.” It’s a terrible link, because the compared option for “the Ukraine” includes every occurrence of “Ukraine”: Ngram: The Ukraine,Ukraine.

This sort of direct personal research doesn’t belong in the encyclopedia. Here’s a better search which compares two mutually exclusive subsets of usage, and yields a very different graph: Ngram: of the Ukraine + in the Ukraine + from the Ukraine + to Ukraine,of Ukraine + in Ukraine + from Ukraine + to Ukraine.

I removed the link. My example is better, but also doesn’t belong here as a reference. —Michael Z. 2018-03-29 16:06 z
