I am currently studying the most suitable dictionary for use in the application that I am creating.
By checking the dictionaries that are associated with Sublime Text 2, the file format is as you would expect - a list of alphabetically ordered words. However, many of these words contain additional information. Take this snippet as an example:
abaft
abbreviation/M
abdicate/DNGSn
Abelard/M
abider/M
Abidjan
ablaze
abloom
aboveground
abrader/M
Abram/M
abreaction/MS
abrogator/MS
abscond/DRSG
absinthe/MS
absoluteness/S
absorbency/SM
abstract/ShTVDPiGY
absurdness/S
A barren Google search does not shed light on what the letters after the slash (/) mean.
Perhaps they hint at the floor of this word, but this is only an assumption, and I would rather read the official explanation of their meaning.
Has anyone come across them?
