Actually, it turns out that the list works, only not for the "aa �"
replacement. I'm still trying to find out for which combinations it
works.

For example, the replacement "aab �" works (if I type it aab, it will
suggest �) but not for aaa or aaaa, but it works for bb.

I don't know why it behaves in this way, it seems to work for any
combination, only not for a's. In Norwegian this is a replacement that
is needed because aa really is a substitute for � (it sounds like it,
and is used by people writing in Norwegian using an english keyboard).

There is still no soundslike pattern written for the norwegian
dictionary, but is there a way of including this replacement "aa �" now
that this doesn't work thruogh the replacement wordlist?
