Hi there Eiram! I am not really sure but if you're asking about an English word, based on the trivia bot in a channel in MIRC, where I hang out, playing trivia, it said that the word "the" is the most used English word.

I think so. "The" is sometime overused while it does not refer to the things mentioned above, or anything that is common knowledge between to the writer and reader. I do overuse that, my friend...

hi eiram! as mentioned before my response, the word "the". aside from that article, i think the next word that's being used most of the time is "think". especially here in mylot. especially when someone is asking for an opinion or a response. =) let's see. hopefully we can count. =)
