I need a way to efficiently filter out common dictionary words from a list of strings, ideally using existing CLI tools or libraries.

Might want to filter out words which are not nouns, after removing stop words. ntlk can get you part of speech. · 2 years ago
The keyword for this is "stop words". You can find lists of stop words online, and then filter them out using Python or `grep -vf`. · 2 years ago
Grab a word frequency list off somewhere (I think I've found them on wikipedia at times), plop into a file, read it into a set in python, match vs that? · 2 years ago
@ethereal I have used aspell in the past, but its dictionaries are too comprehensive. I just want to throw out the most common English words. I'm looking at nltk and TextBlob in Python at the moment. I'm trying to extract 'interesting words' from bookmark titles. · 2 years ago
Don't most linux distros ship with a list of dictionary words, primarly for spellchecking? Maybe you could start from there. · 2 years ago
