Yeah, I'd be interested in a proper study of this. There are tons of papers on speech information density, which is not the same as character information densit

Yeah, I'd be interested in a proper study of this. There are tons of papers on speech information density, which is not the same as character information density. One thing that provides a lot of contextual information in German are the inflections and suffixes, i.e. "Köchin" - female cook "Koch" - male cook "Köchchen" / "Köchle" ... - diminuitive cook "Kochs" - possessive / "the cook's ..." etc.
