[Haskell-cafe] How can I get a list of all English words?

[MigMit]

Oxford English Dictionary contains more than 600000 words, by the way. And sometimes even humans have trouble discerning typos from made-up words, which may or may not be a concern for you, depending on your goal.

If you need every English word, you need to read a English dictionary, which has all the words, and store it in map, or hash-map, because list would be very slow for accessing the words. (is it the case that you want to break a line, e.g., “brown fox jumped over the lazy dog” into list of words, [brown, fox, jumped, over, the, lazy, dog]?)
