title: Populate dictionary from list
body: <p>I have a list of strings (from a <code>.tt</code> file) that looks like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>list1 = ['have\tVERB', 'and\tCONJ', ..., 'tree\tNOUN', 'go\tVERB']
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I want to turn it into a dictionary that looks like:</p>
  
  <pre><code>dict1 = { 'have':'VERB', 'and':'CONJ', 'tree':'NOUN', 'go':'VERB' }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I was thinking of substitution, but it doesn't work that well. Is there a way to tag the tab string <code>'\t'</code> as a divider?</p>
