 * In order to add a new dictionary Locale, simply copy the existing dictionary.properties files, replace the values (Strings after the ':') with the new language specific ones being careful to maintain formatting and Gatherer placed arguments, then save the new dictionary as: <br>
 * <BR>
 * dictionary_<I>locale</I>.properties<BR>
 * <BR>
 * where locale is made of two two-letter codes seperated by an underscore. The first code is in lower-case and defines the language. The second is in upper-case and defines the country. For example the default dictionary could also correctly be called:
 * <BR>
 * dictionary_en_NZ.properties<BR>
