I have been looking high and low for a free dictionary. But no luck. So, the following .sql file is a dump of an English dictionary with three additional fields. One to
describe if the word is a noun or verb, a soundex value and a metaphone value. Both soundex and metaphone functions and descriptions are available in PHP documentation.

Since the file is about 1.38MB pasting it here would be a bit cumbersome.
You can find the ZIPed file at http://www.chiefofficer.com/public/dictionary.zip ?>
