Hi,

There are many, many lists of words in different languages, but most
are not broken down into usage. I assumed you were looking for English
words.

Downloadable Dictionaries & Word List Sites
http://www.net-comber.com/wordurls.html
is a page of links to sites that may be of interest, but the one that
includes syntax is...

http://download.sourceforge.net/wordlist/pos-1.zip
This link is a very large downloadable file. When unzipped it produces
a comprehensive, or as you so aptly put it HUGE :-), list of words.
There is also a read me file that tells you know what the symbols next
to each word mean.

Search terms: English grammar lists words syntax

Have fun with this!

I didn't find separate lists of nouns, adjective, and adverbs. But
here are some bits and pieces that may be more or less useful to you.

A truly gigantic list of words, arranged in order of word length:
http://kmy.aboleo.net/Class/CS233/Project/dictionary.txt (WARNING -
HUGE text file)

A "Unified Verb Index" that has a lot of verbs, separated into several
pages by initial letter:
http://www.cis.upenn.edu/~dgildea/Verbs/

A directory that contains large .txt files with 3,4,5,6,and 7 letter
words, including obscure ones:
http://www.cse.msu.edu/~cse841/HW1/
