Updated dictionary for English based on 10k word list #29

Closed mshulman closed 7 years ago

mshulman commented 7 years ago

Got word list from https://github.com/first20hours/google-10000-english/blob/master/google-10000-english-no-swears.txt

Removed all 1, 2, and 3 letter words from that list, sorted, then formatted.

@mshulman great idea, and thanks for all the work.

Could I just ask you to re-submit the patch on share/sample_dict_EN.txt rather than on the "compiled" perl module. EN.pm is generated from the text file rather than hand-coded. Could you also update the comment at the top of the file with any and all credits that are needed to fulfil the license on the wordlist you used.

I'm happy to do all that if you like, but if you do it you'll get the proper credit for your work on GitHub.

Thanks again for both your work and your interest,

Bart.

Hi!

I submitted a PR on the share/sample_dict_EN.txt as well. Please decline the PR on the generated file.

I'll modify the other PR to do the proper attribution.
