// This dictionary can also be used to remove 'qualifiers' (eg Portuguese (Brazil) to Portuguese because Portuguese (Brazil) is
// not an ISO 639-1 language). Dictionary misspellings should be lower case only because the code sets all language values to
// lower case before it searches the dictionary.
