stoplist.txt

The list of common English words used by the Common Words view for exclusions is found in Contents/Resources/config/stoplist.txt within the Tinderbox app package. It can be overridden at app level by a customised user version in:

~Library/Application Support/Tinderbox/stoplist.txt 

The file is a plain text file, one word per line, all lower-case. The reason the word doesn't seems to appears twice is to allow for straight and typographic ('curly') variants of the apostrophe character. This is the default list:
