Word guessing game that is much harder than I expected, and makes me want to do some quick analysis of the dictionary and what words are at various positions in the list. Unix to the rescue! wc -l /usr/share/dict/words tells me there are 235,976 words. Then sed -n '117988p' /usr/share/dict/words tells me the first word to start with is "mediation".
