Hapax legomenon In corpus linguistics, a hapax legomenon ( also or ;, from the Greek ἅπαξ λεγόμενον, pl. "hapax legomena"; sometimes abbreviated to "hapax", pl. "hapaxes") is a word that occurs only once within a context, either in the written record of an entire language, in the works of an author, or in a single text. The term is sometimes incorrectly used to describe a word that occurs in just one of an author's works, even though it occurs more than once in that work. "Hapax legomenon" is a transliteration of Greek ἅπαξ λεγόμενον, meaning "(something) said (only) once".

Hapax legomenon "Hapax legomena" are quite common, as predicted by Zipf's law, which states that the frequency of any word in a corpus is inversely proportional to its rank in the frequency table. For large corpora, about 40% to 60% of the words are "hapax legomena", and another 10% to 15% are "dis legomena". Thus, in the Brown Corpus of American English, about half of the 50,000 words are "hapax legomena" within that corpus.
