I am looking for a list of all English words that are their own antonyms. Off the top of my head, I can only think of "either", "fast", "to dust" and "to lease", but there must be dozens more. Can you provide a link to a comprehensive list, if such exists?
Also, what are such words most commonly called? I like the term "Janus word" I once heard, but is that widely understood?
Edited by popular demand to make it absolutely clear that this is not a community wiki poll.
