Forget what I said above the file had been overidden .

Now when I do read from the file that does contain:

Code:
5
ahoy there
hello
me hearties
dear friends
well, shiver me timbers
gosh - how exciting
arrrrrrgh!
goodness!
you're a bilge rat
you are a horrid person
The printout is instead:

Code:
 Phrases@1672bbb
Phrases@6833f2
Phrases@12a73d9
Phrases@1bdb58
Phrases@dd75a4
From the format of the printout I can see that I am succesfully able to load from and save to the file but it is not in the english format I have expected it to be.

Is there anyway from both my dictionary code:

Code:
 import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
public class Dictionary

{
   private ArrayList<Phrases> phrase;
   public Dictionary()  {
       phrase=new ArrayList<Phrases>(30);

       
    }
    public void add(Phrases p){
      phrase.add(p);
      
    }
    
    public void printout(){
           System.out.println("The phrases in the dictionary are:  ");
           for (Phrases p:phrase) {
               System.out.println(p.toString());
            }
        }
       
       
   public void load(String pirateTxt)  throws IOException{       
   Scanner infile=new Scanner(new InputStreamReader(
   new FileInputStream("pirate.txt")));
   int num=infile.nextInt();
   infile.nextLine();
   for(int i=0;i<num; i++){
   String pi=infile.next();
   String e=infile.next();
   infile.nextLine();
   Phrases p=new Phrases(pi,e);
   phrase.add(p);
}
infile.close();
}

public void save(String pirateTxt) throws IOException{
       PrintWriter outfile = new PrintWriter
       (new OutputStreamWriter
         (new FileOutputStream(pirateTxt)));  
	   outfile.println(phrase.size());
         for (Phrases p:phrase) {
             outfile.println(p.toString()); 
             }
         outfile.close();
}
}
And my Phrases code:

Code:
 import java.util.*;

public class Phrases
{
  private String pirate;
  private String english;
  
  public Phrases()  {
      pirate="unknown";
      english="unknown";
    }
  
    public Phrases(String pi,String e)  {
        pirate=pi;
        english=e;
    }
    
    public String getEnglish()
    { 
      return  english;
    }
    
}
Could someone take a quick look over this please and give me feedback about why it is reading the text file as shown?
