Ahh... That makes sense. Thanks. However I still don't understand why we wouldn't want the English dictionary to stem unrealised and realises together (which implicitly allows the non-word "unrealises"). > A quick grep shows there are a lot of *hs words in there > that htfuzzy can't make use of.

Yes. I've suggested a new rule to the ispell maintainer ([^cst]h -> s, [cst]h -> es) which fixes most problems (*gh,*ph), while maintaining compatibility with ispell as much as possible. You're right that we can add lots more rules to improve stemming in lots of ways.
