### 5.4 Dumping the Contents of the Word List

The dump command in `aspell` will simply dump the contents of a word list to `stdout` in a format that can be read back in with ‘`aspell create`’.

If no word list is specified the command will act on the default one. For example the command

    aspell dump personal

will simply dump the contents of the current personal word list to `stdout`.
