Copyright 2000-2026 by Kevin Atkinson
Permission to use, copy, modify, distribute, and sell any part of the English
Speller Database (also known as SCOWLv2 or simply SCOWL), or word lists
created from it, is hereby granted without fee, provided that the above
copyright notice appears in all copies and that both the above copyright
notice and this notice appear in supporting documentation. Kevin Atkinson
makes no representations about the suitability of this database for any
purpose. It is provided "as is" without express or implied warranty.
SCOWLv2 is derived from many sources, most of which are in the Public Domain.
Data from the Corpus of Contemporary American English (COCA) was also used.
All data from COCA comes from 3-gram data that is not freely available;
however, the usage is within the rights given by the NDA that was signed when
purchasing the data. More information on COCA is available at
https://www.english-corpora.org/coca/.
The primary source of words for SCOWLv2 comes from 12dicts and ENABLE2K. Both
are in the Public Domain, but Alan Beale <biljir@pobox.com> deserves special
credit as he is the author of 12dicts and a major contributor to ENABLE2K. In
addition, he gave me an incredible amount of feedback and created a number of
special lists in order to help improve the overall quality of SCOWLv2.
===
If you are using an official speller dictionary created by SCOWLv2 that is not
Australian English, then no additional copyright applies and including the
notice before the === is sufficient.
If you are using the Australian English dictionary or a wordlist that uses the 'D'
SPELLING code and/or the 'AU' REGION code, the copyright after '=== AU' applies.
If you are using a generated word list larger than 80, the copyright
after '=== UKACD' applies.
If you are distributing the SCOWLv2 database or results from the SCOWLv2
database that is not a speller dictionary or generated word list, then both
copyrights may apply depending on the parts you use. In addition, the WordNet
copyright MIGHT apply as WordNet was one of many sources used for the initial
POS assignment.
=== AU
The initial information for Australian English comes from Benjamin Titze:

representations about the suitability of this array for any
purpose. It is provided "as is" without express or implied warranty.
=== UKACD
Some words used come from the UK Advanced Cryptics Dictionary:

There are no other restrictions: I would like to see the list
distributed as widely as possible.
=== WordNet
WordNet was used to help with the initial POS assignment:
