Credits and Licenses

Wordilizer uses a clearly licensed English word-list package and documents it here.

English word list

Wordilizer uses an-array-of-english-words, version 2.0.0, maintained by Zeke Sikelianos and contributors. The package contains roughly 275,000 lowercase English words and states that it is derived from the Letterpress word list.

The package is distributed under the MIT License, which permits commercial use, modification, and distribution subject to preservation of its copyright and permission notice. Wordilizer normalizes the data and exposes filtered search results rather than claiming that the list is an official word-game dictionary.
