+As per my previous post, you should now have a single `srt` subtitle file, to convert this into a single word list that you can begin translating away at, you can run the below verbose script.
+
+```
+tr ' ' '\n' < subs.srt \ 
+	sed -e 's/<[^>]*>//g' \ 
+	tr '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]' \ 
+	tr -d '\>\/!-.:?,.\",[:digit:]' \ 
+	sed -e '/^[[:space:]]*$/d' -re 's/\s+$//' \ 
+	sort -u > subs-sort.srt
+```
+
+In short, this will break all spaces into new lines, remove HTML tags, make everything lowercase, remove some strange characters and empty lines then finally sort the list while removing duplicates.
+
+One issue I've noticed is some _special_ characters won't be converted to lowercase &Aring; to &aring; for example. I don't have an automated workaround for you aside from specifying the letters individually for example using:
+
+<pre><code>tr '&AElig;&Oslash;&Aring;&Auml;&Ouml;&ETH;&THORN;&Aacute;&Eacute;&Iacute;&Oacute;&Uacute;&Yacute;' '&aelig;&oslash;&aring;&auml;&ouml;&eth;&thorn;&aacute;&eacute;&iacute;&oacute;&uacute;&yacute;'</pre></code>
