<pre>Unlocalized file should have its own list and should not mix with localized
file
the reason was explained here

<span class="quote">>...

> there are also separate replacement tables for all language variants:</span >
<span class="quote">> however those .dat files are not mutual... this separate subtype policy must
> be kept because of the minority of words that have different spelling among
> language variants

> For example i could set a:
> - “colour -> color” entry in the acor-en_US.dat file and a
> - “color -> colour” entry in the acor-en_GB.dat file

> there's however the vast majority of words that have exactly the same
> spelling... let's take an example: “yellow” which is the same in England,
> USA,
> South Africa, Australia, Canada etc. etc.
>
> if you come with a typing error like “yrllow” you should set an autocorrect
> entry in each of the localized english .dat files... it would be too time
> consuming...

> It would be much user friendly and time saving to have a “non localized”
> "acor-en.dat" file whose entries are shared by all english subtypes.

> it would be great to have something similar to the the “universal
> replacement table” acor_.dat but restricted to certain language groups.
> something like:

> - acor_en.dat working on both UK, US, AUS etc. ect. english variants
> - acor_it.dat working both on italian and swiss language</span ></pre>
