Maq Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 If you are on linux it comes with a mini dictionary (about 100k words, all separated by newlines). You can probably find more through the package manager. Use Google, I just came across a lot of hits for text word lists.

ldougherty Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 If you just do a search for "download english dictionary" you will find a wealth of resources to download text documents with lists of words and meanings. You could ofcourse run a script to remove the meanings and just use the list of words.
