eb1a3bd8ca Say goodbye to freen' and freend'.
freen: imputed typo in original wordlist.  I can find no evidence for this
being an actual English word, not even in the OED.

freend: archaic spelling of `friend'.  In a modern document, it is far
more likely that this appears as a typo or a dialect word than it does
under the original meaning, so remove it as not to cause false negatives
for spelling checkers.

2b7d182bea Add one of the two root words adapted from scandinavian since 1066:
ombudsman
and its mate
        ombudsmanship
since I've had ispell (which uses /usr/share/dict/words) flag it too
many times.

Thanks to phk for telling me the other word is kokkenmoding, an
archaeological term for a pile of oystershells and other debiris from
a stone-age household.  I didn't add it to the list, however, since
none of the online dictionaries that I looked at had it in them.
Gotta find that oed lookup link :-)

b232a7db96 Update the dictionary to contain all of the words in
/usr/share/dict/{eign,web2,propernames}.  Most of the additions are
proper names, but the word 'all' is a notable exception.

6221587909 Remove:
corelate
	corelated
	corelation
	corelative
	corelatively

My Random-House dictionary doesn't list them, and grog says (paraphrased):

	SOED only accepts 'corelate's, and it just notes corelate as an
	alternative (and obviously not exactly mainstream) spelling for
	correlate.

(yes these spellings tripped me)

did not know this country. Shame!
