10 seconds of asking google brings up some results
u will probably have to take dozens of sources in and build a unique list from that
Here is a copy of the scrabble tournament word list that I found a long time ago. I don't remember exactly where I found it, but it contains 170k+ words.

i've done a lot of searching and still i dont find the good one
well, u wont find one good one, take as many as u can and merge them together
i had an idea to scrape a dictionary web but it takes a lot of cpu, i took like 500k words
and it crashes everytime it reaches 400k words
that sounds weird
can u show the code?
well its not in c# its python š
oh š
but i thought there might be people with a good dictionary
well didnt u find the other day the 450k word list already?
yes but doesnt have all the words in it
if you search words that contain sdy
youll find 4 of them in that or 3
there are 8 or more
well yeah, completing that list will take forever, and u can never be sure that u got all words
yes but still is not enough
the oxford dic has 600k words
i tried to scrape a oxford dic
other one i dont know had 1k pages
10k words
š
i also highly doubt that there is any one dictionary that is a 100% complete list
additionally, i guess most online dictionaries have it in their ToS that u are not allowed to scrape them, so it would be against the server rules and against discord's ToS so we cant really help u with that either
about the scrape im not scraping im sending request to scrape so they let me in
