+ +Alan Beale also deserves special credit as he has, +in addition to providing the 12Dicts package and being a major +contributor to the ENABLE word list, given me an incredible amount of +feedback and created a number of special lists (those found in the +Supplement) in order to help improve the overall quality of SCOWL.

Part of SCOWL is also based on Ispell thus the +Ispell copyright is included with the SCOWL copyright. The affix file is +a heavily modified version of the original english.aff file which was +released as part of Geoff Kuenning's Ispell and as such is covered by +his BSD license. + +COPYRIGHT, SOURCES, and CREDITS: + +The English dictionaries come directly from SCOWL +and is thus under the same copyright of SCOWL. +The list was originally derived from Németh László, however I removed +some words which, while being considered taboo by some dictionaries, +are not really considered swear words in today's society. While I made an +honest attempt to flag the strongest taboo words with the NOSUGGEST +flag, I MAKE NO GUARANTEE THAT I FLAGGED EVERY POSSIBLE TABOO WORD. + +ADDITIONAL NOTES: + +The NOSUGGEST flag was added to certain taboo words. + +IMPORTANT CHANGES INTRODUCED IN 2016.01.19: + +"SET UTF8" was changes to "SET UTF-8" in the affix file as some +versions of Hunspell do not recognize "UTF8". This +was required to handle smart quotes correctly. + +IMPORTANT CHANGES INTRODUCED In 2016.11.20: + +New Australian dictionaries thanks to the work of Benjamin Titze + +IMPORTANT CHANGES INTRODUCED IN 2016.04.24: + +The dictionaries are now in UTF-8 format instead of ISO-8859-1. If you +have specific issues with any of these dictionaries please file a bug +report at. + +General comments on these list can be sent directly to me at or to the wordlist-devel mailing lists +(). + +If a word is not found in the dictionary or a word is there you think +shouldn't be, you can lookup the word up at +to help determine why that is.
Please do let me know +if you end up publishing a customized dictionary. If you find them useful please send me a quick email at + +If none of these dictionaries suite you (for example, maybe you want +the normal dictionary that also includes common variants) additional +dictionaries can be generated at or by +modifying speller/make-hunspell-dict in SCOWL.
+The en_GB and large dictionaries are made available on an experimental +basis. + +To get an idea of the difference in size, here are 25 random words +only found in the large dictionary for American English: + + Bermejo Freyr's Guenevere Hatshepsut Nottinghamshire arrestment + crassitudes crural dogwatches errorless fetial flaxseeds godroon + incretion jalapeño's kelpie kishkes neuroglias pietisms pullulation + stemwinder stenoses syce thalassic zees + +The en_US, en_CA and en_AU are the official dictionaries for Hunspell. The larger dictionaries however (1) have not +been as carefully checked for errors as the normal dictionaries and +thus may contain misspelled or invalid words and (2) contain +uncommon, yet valid, words that might cause problems as they are +likely to be misspellings of more common words (for example, "ort" and +"calender"). The large dictionaries correspond to SCOWL size +70 and may include multiple spelling for a word when both variants are +considered almost equal.
+ +The following dictionaries are available: + + en_US (American) + en_CA (Canadian) + en_GB-ise (British with "ise" spelling) + en_GB-ize (British with "ize" spelling) + en_AU (Australian) + + en_US-large + en_CA-large + en_GB-large (with both "ise" and "ize" spelling) + en_AU-large + +The normal (non-large) dictionaries correspond to SCOWL size 60 and, +to encourage consistent spelling, generally only include one spelling +variant for a word. + +These dictionaries are created using the speller/make-hunspell-dict +script in SCOWL.
