In the Torah
The Torah holds 329,645 sequences of נון at skips 2–5,000, 2.3% above what chance alone gives (about 322,354); at counts this large even that difference has a probability of 9.0 × 10⁻³⁸ by chance alone.
Its smallest skip in the Torah is 2 — the first at Genesis 6:20, reading forward.
Counting every skip from 2 to 152,424, the Torah holds 4,929,366 sequences of נון, against about 4,996,353 from chance alone.
A three-letter spelling is common at these skips: in a text of 304,850 letters chance alone produces about 322,354 of it, so a large count is expected.
