MySQL question - perhaps interesting?

[Zbigniew Koziol]

How to get the best speed?

Words in every language occure with a well determined probablility. For 
instance, for English, "a" and "the" will be somewhere at the top.

I want to bild a database of the most common words in English, a 
something like at least a few tens of records. Every record will contain 
transcription.

And now, the question:

How optimize process of searching for words?
Should I create these records in ascending or descending order? Any 
differnec will be observed? Or perhaps an entirely different approach 
should be made?
