Also a lot of the words coretj lists are acronyms or not words in the dictonary such as: AI, AIN, AIT, ANI, AUSTIN, IMAM, INTUIT, ISM, ISMS, UT, TUI, MINIM. There are more, however there are some good words too like: INTIMA, MANUMIT, amd MITTIMUS.

263 words in this list. I can't say if they can all be found in the dictionaries you specified though. I deleted quite a few that I thought were just anagrams. My original list had over 280 words. some are prefixes, suffixes, plurals, past tense etc.

*SSSSLLLLAAAAPPPP* That was the sound of a dictionary hitting me in the head. I stand corrected. I suppose next time I should do more than plugging the words I questioned into google and seeing what pops up. Its been a while since I have had a dictionary around and I thought that people and places were not in them for some reason. Also I don't know why I listed intuit because I have used that one before... Out of curiosity what dictionary are you quoting?
