SOWPODS

SOWPODS refers to the union of the two English-language Scrabble® dictionaries, the NSA's Tournament Word List (formerly the Official Scrabble Players Dictionary) and the British Official Scrabble Words. In most parts of the world, a word is deemed acceptable if it can be found in either lexicon. In those parts where only one lexicon is used, plans to add the other lexicon are controversial.
