Vim's Dictionary completion is a feature that offers autocompletion candidates based on the word list files specified in the 'dictionary' option. Pressing Ctrl-X Ctrl-K in insert mode shows words from the dictionary files as candidates, and adding k to the 'complete' option includes them in regular Ctrl-N completion as well. The system's /usr/share/dict/words or a word list you make yourself can be used as a dictionary.
