Aozora Bunko is a website that contains copyright-expired Japanese books. Some time ago, I hunted in its main page. For this word dump, the source is from the library card page of “Wagahai wa Neko de aru”. It is one of main works of the famous writer Natsume Soseki.
So, will I continue by reading the book itself? I’ve downloaded the file, but now I think I’ll tackle easier (kanji-wise) learning materials first.
