Like Pinkfreud stated these are "words" that have dictionary entries. By "words" this doesn't neccessarily mean they are words but may be acronyms, foreign words, or Proper Nouns. A researcher may be able to create a list based on your needs. If you require a list of "words" that are not Proper or acronyms I'm sure a researcher can do that. I would venture to say thought that $2.00 (of which the reseacher gets $1.50) may not be enough compensation for the amount of work needed for this project since it is not a straight-forward one-link answer. Perhaps you should consider raising the price a bit (suggestion between $5-$10). |

I've used OneLook before with better results. It seems that there's a bug and the wild card * is not working right. Instead of starting at the beginning of the alphabet and finding words that end in *ca the results start with the same letter as the suffix you're looking for. I tested this with *na. You can still get all the words ending in ca but you have to repeat the search with all the letters of the alphabet, i.e., a*ca, b*ca, etc. http://answers.google.com/answers/threadview?id=580399 Q: (For czh): Words ending in -esque http://www.onelook.com/?w=*esque&ls=a Word or phrase: *esque Hits: 1. -esque 2. ?esque 3. abba-esque 4. abba esque 5. adamesque 6. alhambresque 7. arabesque 8. arboresque 9. audenesque 10. bandwagonesque http://www.onelook.com/?w=*ca&ls=a Word or phrase: *ca Hits: 1. c-mpca 2. c. acustica 3. c. chiasmatica 4. c. clinica 5. c. cystica 6. c. epidermica 7. c. epiglottica 8. c. epithalamica 9. c. hepatica 10. c. hyperelastica http://www.onelook.com/?w=a*ca&ls=a Word or phrase: a*ca Hits: 1. a&eca 2. a-emca 3. a. amnemonica 4. a. ascendens ileocolica 5. a. asthmatica 6. a. atactica 7. a. atlantoepistrophica 8. a. atrophica 9. a. biliaropancreatica 10. a. cosmetica 92. aaca 93. aacca 94. aarktica 95. aau mr. america 96. aau mr america 97. abaca 98. abarca 99. abbott and costello in africa 100. abca |

I would guess that lindmar-ga is looking for domain names, like for example toysrus and people would buy toysr.us, and same way for Canadian domains .ca, furca as fur.ca |

I am not familiar with onelook but this should be trivial if you simply download a freely available wordlist such as one from http://wordlist.sourceforge.net/ and then use a regular expression tool such as Unix/Linux grep with 'ca$' as the pattern, assuming one word per line. If it is not one word per line but is comma separated, it should be pre-processed with sed or tr, which is also very easy. |
