I found a strange flaw in the current Norwegian
dictionary for the win32 port (aspell-no-0.50-2-3). I
noticed that the common word "fra", which means
"from", was not a valid word. Then I noticed that
"frihet" (freedom) and "frisk" (healthy) where not
valid as well! It seems that the dictionary is missing
words or is corrupt from somewhere around FORF and
throughout the rest of F. Like the word "foreldet" is
ok but "forkaste" is suggested to be "for-kaste" or
"for kaste", which is not correct. And there are a lot
of others upwards. However, it seems like it has no
problems with the norwegian letter "ø" which is one of
the last characters in the norwegian alphabet, so that
words like "førende" is ok (tested with
run-together-limit set to 0). But it might be that "ø"
is listed earlier in the Aspell dictionary.

Any help appreciated ;)
Rob
