Do remember that, as languages go, English has a rather large 
vocabulary. I don't know of any languages where 32K is a 
problem, but when over 100K or so, there is a problem. Also, 
even in English, we may want to limit the words to common words 
with different pronunciations, avoiding the there, their, 
they're problem.
While this group probably won't pick the word list, we do need 
to keep it relatively small.
