COMMON_WORDSconstant

The 26,014 common words of JMdict that safe mode keeps, which tags a word common when any of its written forms or readings is in news1, ichi1, spec1, spec2 or gai1. Each row: reading, written forms joined by "|", flags, then one field for each sense: its marks, then its glosses. Nothing that safe mode leaves out is in it. Written by scripts/build-words.mjs from JMdict, never edited by hand.
