In the Torah

At skips 2–5,000, אנו appears 1,240,904 times in the Torah — 0.5% more than the 1,235,015 chance alone would give; the probability of 1,240,904 or more by chance alone is 6.0 × 10⁻⁸.

The shortest skip at which אנו appears in the Torah is 2 — the first at Genesis 5:24, reading forward.

At every skip the Torah allows (2–152,424), אנו is found 19,280,895 times; chance alone would give about 19,142,195.

A three-letter spelling is common at these skips: in a text of 304,850 letters chance alone produces about 1,235,015 of it, so a large count is expected.
