WordsLoadErrorclass
What a lookup rejects with when a piece of the dictionary cannot be fetched, after one retry: a network that is down, a file the
host does not serve, a bundler that left the piece out. It names the piece, so a log says which one, and keeps the reason in
cause. Nothing else a lookup does rejects with it: a text with no word is an empty answer, and a lookup before loading is a
RangeError.
