Title: Swadesh List Search
Link: http://troyspier.com/sandbox/swadesh.php

This tool is powered by data compiled from the archives of The Rosetta
Project, which previously had an online tool available. It should be
understood that the transcriptional conventions are somewhat odd or
inconsistent at some points, due mostly to technological/encoding
limitations when they digitized the data; thus, no attempt has been
made here to standardize the data. This is because over one thousand
languages are included, resulting in a total of over 250,000 words. I
have attempted, however, to remove duplicates automatically. As a
result, you should consult original descriptive grammars and/or
dictionaries for confirmation prior to inclusion in any project for
research or school, as this project is provided as-is. The joined text
file and compressed directory of all text files are also available on
the website, should you decide to download and use them yourself.

Please note that I am NOT a professional programmer. Because we're on
break this week, I had some extra time and thought I would attempt a
replacement. If something breaks or isn't working as expected, feel
free to let me know, so that I can try to improve or implement it.
