Hi all,

Together with http://opentaal.org , I'm working on a special Illume
dictionary for Dutch word completion. It will be available in the near
future.

Of course this particular word list is very long and contains about
250,000 words and has a typical loooong tail. Many words or compositions
or occur seldom in average day use.

What would be a good cut off point in number of words, also in terms of
performance?

The Portuguese list contains 56,609 words. Is this workable? How many
does the English contain?

Thanks,

Pander
