Remove reoccurrence from the dictionary.txt -- LGTM and popular word
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Originally spotted by @MatthiasWiesmann in review of

- schemaorg/schemaorg#3474

And indeed, "reoccurrence" has different meaning from "recurrence" and also
formally listed in dictionaries, e.g.

- https://www.oed.com/dictionary/reoccurrence_n?tl=true
- https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/reoccurrence

In search trends
https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?geo=US&q=reoccurrence,recurrence&hl=en
it is only 3 to 79 so ~25 times less "popular" than "recurrence".

Overall -- LGTM, used widely enough, and thus IMHO should not be listed
as a typo.
