Adding words after a set of words

Greetings.

I am a UNIX newbies.

I am currently facing difficulties dealing with a large data set and I would like to ask for helps. I have a input file like this:

ak 1 AAM1
ak 2 AAM1
ak 3 AAM1
ak 11 AMM2
ak 12 AMM2
ak 13 AMM2
ak 14 AMM2

Is there any possibility for me to have an output like:
SET1
ak 1 AAM1
ak 2 AAM1
ak 3 AAM1
END
SET2
ak 11 AMM2
ak 12 AMM2
ak 13 AMM2
ak 14 AMM2
END
...

It is too complicated for me and I do not know which language to use too. Please give me your opinion. Thank you very much.

Amanda

manx - a list of Manx Gaelic words DESCRIPTION
/usr/share/dict/manx is an ASCII file which contains an alphabetic list of words, one per line. FILES
/etc/dictionaries-common/words is a symbolic link to a /usr/share/dict/<language> file. /usr/share/dict/words is a symbolic link to /etc/dictionaries-common/words, and is the name by which other software should refer to the system word list. See select-default- wordlist(8) for more information. The directory /usr/share/dict can contain word lists for many languages, with name of the language in English, e.g., /usr/share/dict/french and /usr/share/dict/danish contain respectively lists of French and Danish words if they exist. Such lists should be coded using the ISO 8859-1 character set encoding. SEE ALSO
ispell(1), select-default-wordlist(8), and the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard. HISTORY
The words lists are not specific, and may be generated from any number of sources. The system word list used to be /usr/dict/words. For compatibility, software should check that location if /usr/share/dict/words does not exist. AUTHOR
Word lists are collected and maintained by various authors. Linux 16 July 2002 WORDS(5)
