uniq removes duplicates only if they are adjacent:
"Note: 'uniq' does not detect repeated lines unless they
are adjacent. You may want to sort the input first, or
use 'sort -u' without 'uniq'. Also, comparisons honor
the rules specified by 'LC_COLLATE'"
so the file must be sorted first.
$ sort words.list|uniq
