Hi Mikel:
1.The new email suggest it is not really big for most android device, I
think after that email, we won't take it as a problem,right?
But if I am obligated to optimize, I will go from the traditional mini
dictionary in every language(in China, we have mini dictionary called
"words always in use" or the "3500 lemmas usually use"). If there is none,
I can only come to algorithms used in "PageRank" to provide the top used
words. But the data from internet, the frequent vocabulary will be more
"internet talk", the frequency also effected by the preference of clawer.
I know my idea is limited by lack of knowledge. What would you like to
suggest?
2.I am not on propose. maybe some problem of my gmail configuration, I will
check it. I am sorry.
3.I know every country on the planet should be friend of each other, there
are some wars between China and related countries（you can google "Nanjing
Massacre" and our president said we didn't promise no war between Taiwan）,
I should not tell jokes on that to give examples of some language pairs are
highly focused than others.
