There is no need to try all these words. Electrum uses specific words for generating the seed phrase. The list includes 2048 words and only 11 of them (mentioned by BlackHatCoiner in the first reply) start with "sw".

OP very lucky to forgot only part of one word. Forget one word but know its place, still quite easy. Anything after that starts getting complicated and time consuming.

OP is very lucky, not just with the missing word being an "sw" word which is limited according to a poster above but also that there are knowledgeable posters to help out here. You will never know how frustrating it is when you try to access your wallet and then discover you can not because you can not remember your details any more. Then your mind goes on speed when you begin to calculate your worth in that wallet.

You don't really have to do much, not even looking at any word lists. Simply open your Electrum wallet and try creating the new wallet using your seed phrase. While entering each word the Electrum UI will give you suggestions as you enter each letter of each word. As you try each word, only some (possibly one or two) would be correct and you will see the next button become active. If it didn't, then your other words may also be wrong and you'll have to do more work but lets start by this for now.

I had to chuckle about the comments about forgetting part of the last work. It would be very bad if you forgot a couple of words or the order of the words, I can imagine someone saying "I wrote down 8 words but forgot the other 4, and whether it's in front or back of the 8 words." then you'll be in a lot of headache. (still possible, just annoying.)

If it didn't, then your other words may also be wrong and you'll have to do more work but lets start by this for now. That is true if it a native Electrum seed, but if he is trying to import a seed created in a different wallet and ticking the BIP39 feature under options, he should be able to recover a wallet even if the last word is incorrect right? I mean the "next" button would be clickable as soon as a 12th word was entered. From chris192276's OP, it's not possible to determine if that seed was generated by an Electrum client or if he is using Electrum to recover a wallet he created with a different software.

I mean the "next" button would be clickable as soon as a 12th word was entered. This is correct. Electrum will allow you to generate a wallet using the BIP39 method even if the last word is incorrect. It will state "checksum: failed", and will obviously generate an entirely wallet with an entirely different set of addresses than if you had the correct last word, but it will let you proceed nonetheless. Although, OP does say "In my electrum wallet I write down my seeds", which makes it sound like this is an Electrum seed rather than a BIP39 seed.

Not only electrum allows you to create a wallet using a failed-checksum BIP39 seed phrase, but it allows you to create a wallet with any random characters or words.

Maybe it's just me, but I understood that part as: "I entered my seed phrase into the Electrum wallet". Nothing more than that. The origin of the seed remains unknown. Maybe I am overanalyzing stuff and it most probably is an Electrum seed.

Maybe it's just me, but I understood that part as: "I entered my seed phrase into the Electrum wallet".
To me, it reads as "I wrote down my seed words when I created my Electrum wallet, but now the 12th word is illegible, however it begins with 'sw'".

I see you are back again, going to pay back all the bitcoin you stole from the thousands of addresses generated using your site vanitygen? Funny enough the address YOU created was not swept, but thousands after yours were - what a coincidence eh?
