I have no idea where I must inquire about accessing the words listed in the Afrikaans Spelling Dictionary available as an extension to Apache OpenOffice. Are you perhaps able to direct me to the right email address?
I assume you have access to the extension. The extension is a file in the OXT format. Rename it to .zip (if it is named dict-afrikaans.oxt, rename it to dict-afrikaans.zip). Expand the archive. You will find two files, one with extension .dic and one with extension .aff; those two files are in hunspell format and you can generate the wordlist with hunspell. Hunspell is not part of OpenOffice and you must look at the documentation for the hunspell project for more. A simplified interface can be found in the Proofing Tool GUI by Marco Pinto, see https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Dictionaries for links to all the resources listed above.
