</p>

We obtained transcriptions of spoken language from the Miller Center of Public Affairs, University of Virginia, which covers transcriptions from George Washington to the present time. For the writing samples, we used ten complete books written by presidents, three of which we obtained from Project Gutenberg. To ensure the accuracy of calculations, all the pages that were not part of the main content were removed. Furthermore, multiple whitespaces were changed into single whitespaces. For sentence extraction, we used the NLTK library, while CoreNLP (version 4.5.7 ) was employed for tokenization and word counting.
