Is there a way to import them or so? How do I do that? Is this even possible?

You could read them from a file into some kind of collection in the program. The kind of collection would depend on how the code needed to access its contents.

Is a string array with 500-1000 words read out of a file possible? Where can I get such a file.

The number of words would be related to the size of your computer's memory. 10,000 words at 20 bytes each would take approximately 10,000 * 20 bytes.
