It has to be the case that I'm doing something wrong. My list shows that there 466,550 words in my list and the words in the title certainly are not in there. What is going on here?

kylefoley76 commented 3 years ago

I decided to download words_alpha, that worked better, but you might want to fix the word.txt file.

Words like 'even' and 'axis' are missing too. I was very surprised and confused.

I'm seeing all these words in words.txt but they have capitalization. "Even", "Axis", "OF", "IF", "IT", etc. Try searching for words case-insensitive? If you're using cat/grep, then use the -i flag, e.g. cat words.txt | grep -i ^it$

Actually there much more than this. you can try: cat words.txt | grep '[A-Z]', I have made a full list of this kinda words, you can try grep '[A-Z]' words.txt > cap_words.txt

I think this issue should be closed as these words are present in the list.
