Quite. I like random statistics and such. :)

In that case, why not compare them in IPA (or X-SAMPA)?

Nothing exact, since /st/ is not allowed finally (she says as she
quietly fixes "syikavást" in the lexicon *grin*). I do have something
close:

    lesh /lES/ close (in distance).

Otherwise I have no exact matches. What we really need, if we want to
do this sort of comparison, is a computer program that compares
wordlists. It's too tedious to do in bulk otherwise, IMHO.
