How to create and search in a language dictionary

I'm working on an Xcode project.

I need to add a dictionary of words, like English dictionary for example. Then, when required, I need to find some words in it.

I have been thinking about creating an array from a file to store all the words, then sort it in some way I don't know and at last do a binary search or something like this to find the word I'm looking for.

The best way would be to use a database (e.g. SQL-based), or CoreData to store it. That is unless you require the words to be entirely in the memory, which would be the case if you often listed all of them. But even then it can be solved by lazy-loading.
