How to use this word list
J is the shortest ending list on the entire site – just 4 words total. That scarcity comes down to spelling convention: English almost never places J at the very end of a word, so every entry here is a direct transliteration from another language. AFLAJ and FALAJ come from Arabic irrigation terminology, BASIJ refers to an Iranian paramilitary organization, and SAMAJ is a Sanskrit-derived term for a community or society. With a list this small, there is no need to search – all four words are shown below.
