    • In a 2013 article Scott Jarvis proposed that lexical diversity, similar to diversity in ecology, is a perceptual phenomenon. Lexical redundancy is a positive counterpart of lexical diversity in the same way as lexical variability is the mirror image of repetition. According to Jarvis's model, lexical diversity includes variability, volume, evenness, rarity, dispersion and disparity.

    • lexical variability: The property of words according to which a single word may be used with basically the same meaning in many difference contexts, with different implications. For example, the verb file in filing a story, filing a lawsuit, and filing a flight plan has basically the same meaning ('place on record') but different implications.
