1. Evan Antworth, English word list on SIMTEL20
2. , TENNET Conference

An English word list is now available in the LINGUISTICS subdirectory
on SIMTEL20. It is a list of nearly 110,000 English words, one word per
line, in pure ASCII format. Although the list is in MS-DOS files, it can
easily be transferred to a Macintosh or any computer that handles ASCII
text (but you will first need to unzip the files on a DOS machine).
 The list includes inflected forms of the words, such as plural nouns and
the -s, -ed, and -ing forms of verbs; thus the number of lexical stems in
the list is considerably smaller than the total number of word forms.
The files are as follows:
Directory PD1:<MSDOS.LINGUISTICS>
 WORDS1.ZIP B 95306 910907 English word list (ascii), A through D, 1of4
 WORDS2.ZIP B 74597 910907 English word list (ascii), E through K, 2of4
 WORDS3.ZIP B 99024 910907 English word list (ascii), L through R, 3of4
 WORDS4.ZIP B 84500 910907 English word list (ascii), S through Z, 4of4
 These files are available via FTP from WSMR-SIMTEL20.ARMY.MIL [192.88.110.20].
 SIMTEL20 can also be accessed using LISTSERV commands from BITNET via
 LISTSERVNDSUVM1, LISTSERVRPIECS and in Europe from EARN TRICKLE servers
 (for example, FRMOP11 in France). In the U.S. you can also obtain files
 from SIMTEL20 by e-mail. For example, to obtain the first file send this
 line as the only message to listservvm1.nodak.edu (1 = one):
 /PDGET MAIL PD1:<MSDOS.LINGUISTICS>WORDS1.ZIP UUENCODE
 If you are unable to access SIMTEL20 or mirror site wuarchive.wustl.edu,
 most SIMTEL20 MSDOS files are available for downloading on the Detroit
 Download Central network at 313-885-3956.
