Let's try the same approach as my Comment 12 on Bug 1121730

Here's a draft frequency list, based on earlier work I'd done on an Igbo spellchecker.  Material that use diacritics properly is hard to come by, biased toward religious texts.  This could benefit from editing + additional words from native speakers.

We'll take a look at it.

I suggest you deduplicate the ig_wordlist.xml and exclude the words which are included in the FFOS dump. Once done we will review the remainder.

ig_wordlist.xml is already deduplicated.  The list I'm attaching here is the set of words in ig_wordlist.xml, with anything appearing in the FxOS PO files filtered out.

OK. We'll scope out how much time it will take to check them.
I propose to add po files from Market Place and other components when they become available. Will that be of any use?

Yes, more is always better.  Feel free to just add links here and I'll add them to the corpus for potential addition later on.
