Thanks for this. Now I see the semicolon.

No, the issue is real. With the German keyboard, when I type "alp;;", that
is, "alp<shift-comma><shift-comma> I see "alp;;", not the expansion,
"@language python".

With a German keyboard in effect, I can now see why abbreviations
fail:--trace-keys shows: key-release: Shift ';'.

Presumably the shift modifier ruins the match. It's not clear what to do
about this, but now I have something to work with.
