Suggest the d Language and phobos lib ( And other lib )  assigns name to use
the tallest phrase in the phrase of  word frequency .  This, should study
toward the java .  This is also the key that the java jdk source code easily
reads 

This is also one of the java successful keys .

thank you very much !

Are you trying to suggest to follow the Zipf's law in naming things in
Phobos/Tango?

I agree.

I'm not very sure. That would suggest using exceedingly common names 
(the, on, go, do, be, and, use...) which are often imprecise because 
they are used in a variety of contexts (hence their frequency). I often 
prefer a word that has a precise meaning.

I don't really understand .. you are suggesting to use short names or 
long names?

Java is known for having very very very long names

org.name.domain.SomeReallyLongClassName.SomeBoringMethodName( 
myObject.YetAnotherBoringMethodName( 10 ) )

Doing stuff like that is a ReallyBadIdeaInMyHumbleOpinion
