WEB ---- (introduction provided by jaw@riacs) -------------------------
|
|
|
|
Welcome to web2 (Webster's Second International) all 234,936 words worth.
|
|
The 1934 copyright has lapsed, according to the supplier. The
|
|
supplemental 'web2a' list contains hyphenated terms as well as assorted
|
|
noun and adverbial phrases. The wordlist makes a dandy 'grep' victim.

FreeBSD Maintenance Notes ---------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Note that FreeBSD is not maintaining a historical document, we're
|
|
maintaining a list of current [American] English spellings.
|
|
|
|
A few words have been removed because their spellings have depreciated.
|
|
This list of words includes:
|
|
corelation (and its derivatives) "correlation" is the preferred spelling
|
|
freen typographical error in original file
|
|
freend archaic spelling no longer in use;
|
|
masks common typo in modern text
|
|
|
|
--
|
|
|
|
A list of technical terms has been added in the file 'freebsd'. This
|
|
word list contains FreeBSD/Unix lexicon that is used by the system
|
|
documentation. It makes a great ispell(1) personal dictionary to
|
|
supplement the standard English language dictionary.
