Hey everyone,

I'm working on a game that needs a dictionary of the English words, and I've found the perfect freeware one in case anyone else wants it.

http://www.freelang.net/download/misc/english_words.zip

It basically has 120,000 words - minus the definitions. Many of them are common phrases, but those can be stripped out if need be. Can't complain for free

Alright, glad you guys like it.

I've written a small app to strip the words with spaces, apostrophes, and dashes. I've also stripped all the words that are only 1 or 2 characters and made them all lowercase. Here's the new file: http://www.jeku.com/dictionary02.txt

I've noticed there are acronyms and last names in there, too, but that's fine for me for the time being

Woah. That dictionary is a jap short of a kamakazi torpedo. Weird phrases, but thanks for the stripped down version. Might come in handy one day.

Insiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiide!
