CSW or Collins Scrabble Words is the global world source used in Scrabble. CSW2012
is the newest edition, in previous years the global word list was also known as
SOWPODS. CSW is not a single dictionary but an amalgam of three: Collins (7th edition,
2005), Chambers (1998 edition) and TWL, the current Northern American wordlist.
TWL itself is also drawn from a range of sources.
WESPA along with David Sutton have produced some documents to give you lots of information
on the changes from CSW2007 to CSW2012. You'll find these on the WESPA site:
