an-array-of-galician-words

🇬🇧 English · 🏴󠁥󠁳󠁧󠁡󠁿 Galego

List of ~687,000 Galician words.

Derived from the LibreOffice Galician Hunspell dictionary (gl_ES), processed and filtered to include only clean alphabetic words using the Galician character set ([a-záàâãéêèíïóòôõúùûüçñ]).

Inspired by the architecture of an-array-of-english-words by Titus Wormer.
