The   '''UNIXDICT'''   dictionary doesn't have that problem, fortunately.   In reality, almost all dictionaries have duplicate words (either by meaning, by use, by their derivation/root, by case/capitalization, or by whatever).   That shouldn't preclude the correct/accurate counting of (unique) words. -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 18:27, 10 February 2015 (UTC)
 
:If someone has a non-unique word list they should pipe it through <tt>uniq</tt> or <tt>sort -f -u</tt> (or wrt Rosetta Code, see the relevant task for uniquely filtering). &mdash;[[User:dchapes|dchapes]] ([[User talk:dchapes|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/dchapes|contribs]]) 20:04, 10 February 2015 (UTC)
