The
Corncob list of more than |
| MIELIESTRONK.COM
means the cob of the Indian corn, maize
or mealie plant dot com!
It is a website containing myriads of pages (humorous and educational), just as the cob contains many mealies. Most of these pages are in the Afrikaans language spoken in South Africa. This English page is an exception, but was deemed necessary to help Afrikaans scholars studying English. No doubt many web surfers would find other uses for our word-list as well. The list was compiled by merging different word-lists. The British spelling was preferred and American versions deleted. We have used it in crossword compiling (together with a programme) with much success. A few word groups (e.g. RUN_OF_THE_MILL, written RUNOFTHEMILL) are therefore also included. In all hyphenated words the hyphen was deleted to form one word. There are two zipped versions of the list -- the one all CAPS and the other one all lower case (even for normally capitalised words). You may download one or both by clicking on these links: |
