= Wordlist

The wordlist for this_algorithm begins with the wordlist from link:https://github.com/ps-kostikov/english-word-frequency/[ps-kostikov/english-word-frequency^] (link:https://github.com/ps-kostikov/english-word-frequency/blob/master/data/frequency_list.txt[data/frequency_list.txt^])

But this list is not sufficient.
It contains profane, negative, or words otherwise unfit for this algorithm.
Because the wordlist required for this_algorithm is relatively small (8194), we can reduce this 53,000 word list substantially.

Processing steps (source code is available in the `wordlist/` directory):

* `00-frequency-list` - A base list of most possible words (not necessarily including words from step 02), sorted by desire to include, which is frequency in this case
