    looking for a text database of words

    I had something like this before. I'm basically looking for a text file that contains a lot of english words. I dont want a dictionary, I just want a list of many words in the english language. I'm sure there's a lot of these stuff on the net for free but I couldn;t find any. If anyone has something like this, or knows a website that does, please share it with me

    Hi.

    Maybe you could create your own. I think this could be done relativly easy.

    You could make a small app that scans your harddrive for Word-docs and txt files etc.

    In a loop, open each doc. Then loop through each word of the text in the doc.
    If the word is not allready in your file, add it.

    When it's done, you should have a file containing quite a few words.
    I wish I could think of something witty to put in my sig...

    ...Currently using VS2013...

    Hmm your text file appears to be infected. Or at least my Norton is picking it up as "HackTool".

    ok you all suck









    no just kidding
    I have something that I found on my own comp actually. I used it back when I used VB6... It has a LOT of words in it, and it's about 400KB it seems like there are 45521 "words" in it. They are a little weird, but it's still pretty good I think. ahem ahem, I'm not sure where I got this from, so I don't even know if it's free to use it. AGAIN if anyone knows about something similar to this, please let me know. I'm gonno post it in 2 posts since the file is too big for 1 post

    MrPolite,

    I myself have done some research on word lists and have a wealth of words for you. I gave up on my project of creating a stand alone autocomplete program such as the one used in MS Word.

    Here's my top 5 sites I got words from. If you combine the words in all the lists you would need to use or create a program something like Pax talks about to filter out all the duplicate words.

    Dictionary listing of words.
    Page 1

    Website full of other lists of words.
    Page 2

    Website full of words used in spell checkers and word games.
    Page 3

    Another website full of other word lists.
    Page 4

    Website of medical terms... for medical coding
    Page 5

    Enjoy!!
