WeakyWord marks wrong word #10

Closed wikimatze closed 9 years ago

Hi Reed,

I tried the your example example with weak words:

“I got up and went to work.” (weak)
“I awoke and walked to work.” (better)

and in the better part of the example, walked is also marked as weak. In my opinion that's a fine word.

Ha, I need better examples.

As time allows, I'm revisiting the word lists to source them better.

The weak words are currently sourced from: https://github.com/reedes/vim-wordy/blob/master/data/en/weak.dic#L3-L14

I'm not sure which one condemned 'walked' in what context. Maybe it was a matter of being more specific, as in: strode > walked > went ?

There are many useful links in the line you posted, now I understand where you have your words from.
