SCOWL en-AU has 238 words en-GB lacks (billabong, brumby, larrikinism, Australian place
names) and spells program, inquiry, livable, licorice, verandah the Australian way (no
programme, enquiry, liveable, dialog or veranda, as Hunspell en_AU says); -ise/-ize policy and
affix file are the same as en-GB's. craft-i18n already ships language-data/en-au.

- build.rs: unset CRAFT_PROOF_EMBED embeds de, pl, pt, it patterns and ru-extra as before (DEFAULT_EMBED); `en` embeds English and our supplements only; `de,pl` and `all` as before. Making `en` the default is CP4.4, in the release that publishes and pins language-packs-1. The default-build data tests cover pl/it/de/pt again; CI's extra step is now the English-only build.
- licence_texts: one Moby entry (the data's, else the built-in en-words.dic) and en-extra.txt (WordCraft contributors, MIT OR Apache-2.0); the deleted core-list notice is gone.

Languages without tools of their own (nl, fr, sr-Latn…) are spell-checked and given suggestions
through the shared affix engine with default tuning, and hyphenated from their pack's patterns;
no grammar. At most 8 such dictionaries stay loaded. Never another script's pack.

48ed6f8's lenient English path ignored OCONV because craft-proof couldn't
read it. Now that it can (CP6.4), English reads it like every language:
suggestions are shown as the dictionary writes them (`don’t` with the
usual en_US/en_GB `OCONV ' ’`), as Hunspell shows them, and ICONV reads
them back. Compounding is still ignored for English.

craft-libs#483 re-review (P2): ise_spelling turned any z between i/y and a
vowel into s, so en-GB (and the other British Englishes) accepted
misspellings whose -s- form is a word: wize, rize, noize, dizease, advize,
surprize, exercize… (19 reproduced; Hunspell en-GB rejects them all). The
-ize form now counts only when the word itself is in the en-US or en-CA
SCOWL dictionary and its -ise form in en-GB's (organize, realization,
colourize). English with no dialect no longer needs the swap (it reads all
three). Test: british_ize_needs_a_real_ize_word (the 19, plus colorize, wrong
in en-GB and en-AU; organize, realization, colourize, organizing, realizes
right).

craft-libs#483 review (P2): English spelling checked the union of the three
SCOWL dictionaries, so dialects crossed (en-US took colourblind, greyscale;
en-GB took colorblind, esophagi). Each English now checks its own dictionary
only. British English also takes the -ize spellings of its -ise words
(SCOWL's en-GB is -ise only; Word accepts both), and en-variants.txt widens
each dialect by its pairs; judgment/judgement come from craft-i18n#114, which
CI now pins. English with no dialect (is_correct) still takes a word any
English knows. Test: scowl_dialects_dont_cross samples the stems one
dialect has and another lacks, for every pair.
P3s:
- English suggestions (a Tuning of their own): a missing space only between
two lower-case words of three letters or more, ranked after every one-word
candidate (publically: publicly first; no "Thea tr", "Che Que"), and no
word the dictionary only capitalizes (Col, Wis) for a lower-case word.
- A FORBIDDENWORD whole word is never rebuilt from compound parts.
- to_bytes writes ONLYINCOMPOUND without compound rules too (round-trip test).
- Failed lookups: the compound part table is filled lazily, and a word that
doesn't start like a compound part (SCOWL: a digit) skips compounding;
20,000 failed long words take 83 ms, as without compounding (1.09 s before).
- README: en-CA is not a British-spelling English.

craft-i18n's SCOWL rel-2026.02.25 dictionaries (en-us, en-gb -ise, en-ca)
are embedded by build.rs and read per English: en-US, the British-spelling
Englishes (en-AU, en-NZ, en-IE...) through en-GB, en-CA. Suggestions come from
the run's own dictionary; a word is right when any of the three (or
en-extra.txt) knows it, unless en-variants.txt marks it as the other dialect's.
en-variants.txt stays: SCOWL's size-60 lists keep one spelling per dialect and
Word accepts more (organize and organise in en-GB, judgement in en-US).
English lookup order: dictionaries folder (the run's own English only),
[installed English pack, craft-libs#485], embedded SCOWL, system Hunspell
(own English only; not searched while SCOWL is embedded), the built-in Moby
list. The embedded Moby list is no
longer a spelling source (the built-in list is the same list); it stays for
hyphenation. The dialect policy applies to every source.
The affix engine gains COMPOUNDRULE (one-character flags, * and ?),
ONLYINCOMPOUND and COMPOUNDMIN, which SCOWL uses for ordinals (21st, 112th).
Hostile patterns are capped (64 rules, 32 tokens, 48-byte words) and checked
by a memoised walk. load_english now reads them instead of ignoring them (and
keeps ONLYINCOMPOUND stems as compound parts); only flag-based compounding and
OCONV are still ignored for English.
scowl::notice() exposes the SCOWL/Ispell/Titze notice for About. Embedded
Language data grows by 1,542,396 bytes. CI pins craft-i18n#109's merge commit efb1127.

Re-review of craft-libs#482:
- en-GB and en-CA never fall back to an en_US Hunspell dictionary, which marked colour,
organise, centre… (CI's runner has one); without their own they use the built-in Moby list,
which has both spellings. en-US looks for en_US/en-US only.
- hunspell::candidates goes name by name across every folder, so a system en_GB beats an
en_US in the dictionaries folder.
- Built-in suggestions rank swaps, then common words, neighbouring keys, the same first letter;
no one-letter suggestions but a and i (hte -> the, recieve -> receive, wprd -> word).
- The generator leaves out Moby entries that are far more often typos: teh, abd, nad, ur, u, r
(wont and cant stay: words). en-words.dic regenerated (343,988 bytes).
- A load that started before a reload no longer notes its load error; reload clears the
English load errors.

Review of craft-libs#482:
- The built-in fallback is now the full public-domain Moby word list (data/en-words.dic,
words only, 343,992 bytes, from craft-i18n's en-us.dic by examples/en_words.rs) plus
WordCraft's own en-extra.txt (MIT OR Apache-2.0). An unknown word is misspelled; the
near-miss scan (which flagged fiber, theater, organize… and took 14 s on a 2,000-word
token) is gone. Suggestions are the words one edit away, looked up, for words of up to 32
letters. spelling_scales_over_one_long_token runs without the data, with a time bound.
- English Hunspell dictionaries ignore compounding (COMPOUNDMIN, COMPOUNDRULE…; their
ONLYINCOMPOUND stems are left out) and OCONV instead of refusing the file, and a file that
can't be read is skipped for the next name or folder.
- A load that started before english::reload() isn't kept (reloads counter, as slot.rs);
Englishes that use the same .dic share one copy. en-GB/en-CA falling back to en_US is
documented.

- No embedded Moby list: English (en-US, en-GB, en-CA) uses an English
Hunspell .aff/.dic from the dictionaries folder or the system (the run's
English first, then another English), else data/en-core.txt.
- en-core.txt: 11,367 public-domain Moby Hyphenator II words (Grady Ward),
ranked by lower-case frequency in 50 public-domain Gutenberg books
(examples/en_core.rs, book ids recorded). 94 KB. Marks only near misses
of common words (swapped letters; one edit for lower-case words of 4+).
- Unreadable English dictionary (encoding, not UTF-8, no words, size):
error via dictionary_load_error, falls through to the core list; a bad
embedded list is reported the same way. Never a panic.
- Non-English text is never checked against English.
- New: english_source(lang) -> Option<EnglishSource>.
- Embedded-data path unchanged; tests with data unchanged.
- Tests: core list flags/accepts, folder Hunspell preferred over core list,
unreadable dictionaries reported, no_data English now marks misspellings;
two data-ignored tests now run without data. README, ATTRIBUTION, NOTICE.

- Package renamed wordcraft-proof -> craft-proof; [workspace.dependencies]
entry; public API unchanged.
- build.rs embeds craft-i18n language-data/ (en-us, de, pl, pt, it, ru)
instead of include_str!/include_bytes! of WordCraft's assets/: warns when
CRAFT_I18N_DIR is unset, errors under CRAFT_I18N_REQUIRED=1.
- No data: English spelling marks and suggests nothing, hyphenation that
needs data is off, grammar and rule-based hyphenation work. no_data.rs runs
every public entry point without data; data-pinning tests are ignored then
(cfg craft_proof_data).
- es timing bound 75 -> 150 ms: craft-libs tests run at opt-level 0.
- proof.yml (fmt, clippy -D warnings, tests with and without data, release
guard, wasm32), README, CODEOWNERS for crates/proof.
