I'm looking for a "native english" alternative to the word "photograph".
To give an example, we have the word "Lichtbild" in German, which
describes the concept of an image created by or using light in native
german words. Is there an analogous word in English or has "photography"

Can anyone point me to a site where I can download an English dictionary in
a format I can load into a database?
I'm hoping to download in CSV format or similar, with a list of English
words and their word types, eg noun, verb etc

1. Your obstetrician has conformed to this certificate of receipt.
2. The board of directors has postponed the general meeting of
shareholders further to some unexpected incidents
Do the above sentences makes sense? Are they grammatically correct? In
