Description-en: American English dictionary for ispell (huge)
This package provides the american-huge dictionary, based on the americanxlg+
dictionary supplied with the source for ispell, with additional words added
from the more comprehensive wamerican-huge word list package.
.
This is an even larger dictionary than the one installed by
iamerican-large. Nothing prevents you installing both (and others) at the
same time.
.
There are also -small, -large, -insane, and standard versions of this
dictionary, and there are ibritish* packages as well.
.
The package also suggests wamerican-huge because ispell's (L)ookup command
needs a word list.
