Right now, out of 26 letters, the only ones that are still labeled are Q, P, F, G, J, Z, and X.
I got curious. "Everyone" knows that the most-used letter in English is E but what are the least-used letters?
According to Wikipedia (don 't you love Wikipedia?) The letters least frequently used are:
Z
Q
J
X
K
V
B
P
It makes sense that I use "K" more than most people because my name begins with K but why am I typing so many more words that begin with V and B than everyone else? Do I send that many emails to my friend Berkeley? And V? It's not like I write about vampires that much. It's a mystery.
