Several dictionaries exist that can be loaded into TAPA. If you have your own dictionary that you would like to make available to others, please send me an e-mail to have it uploaded to this site.
A couple of brief notes about making your own dictionary file:
- The first column on the left should always have the header “Symbol”
- The second column should always have the header “Type”
- The “Type” column can be filled with one of two values, corresponding to the type of symbol that is being coded (words or characters). The symbol types are as follows for words and characters, respectively:
- word
- char
- The “Type” column can be filled with one of two values, corresponding to the type of symbol that is being coded (words or characters). The symbol types are as follows for words and characters, respectively:
If you have any questions about making a dictionary file, please refer to the files that are available below for reference. Additionally, feel free to send me an e-mail if I can be of any assistance.
*Note: The Warriner et al. ratings found below are the same that are loaded into the software by default.
**Note: For all of the dictionary files on this page, you may want to set TAPA’s “Text Encoding” option to utf-8 when reading the files in. Your system’s default encoding may also be fine.

Pre-trained Word Vectors
Note: These dictionaries consist of extremely large numbers of words and dimensions. All of the following files are extremely large and are extremely memory-intensive. You will most likely need at least 32GB of RAM in your computer to use any of the following files. Some may require 64+ GB of RAM.
You may also consider downloading the “first 100K” or “first 500k” versions of these dictionary files. They are shortened versions of the full dictionaries and may be more viable on less cutting-edge systems.
