If requirement is to just check whether the work is an English word or not then you can use NLTK itself. You can use the function below to check that.

from nltk.corpus import words as nltk_words

NLTK_DICT = dict.fromkeys(nltk_words.words(), None)

def is_english_word(word):

try:  
    x = [word]  
    return True  
except KeyError:  
    return False
