I haven't noticed if Android has done this but at least one other 
non-phone platform I develop for has furnished a file of common device 
used words and their translations.  Noting it took a few years for that 
platform to do this I wouldn't hold my breathe for Android to do so but 
it would be helpful.  These are words like "File", "Open", etc that we 
often use in applications.
