The following perl code:
switch($foo) {
case "bar" {
}
case "baz" {
}
}
This means look at the variable $foo and go through all case statements and
check if that variable is matched by the string following the case. If it
does, execute everything in the {} after that case line. So to add something
for French, you'd add the following:
case "french" {
$string =~ s/string/replacement/g;
}

I don't see how this "dictionary file" would be much different from the
current perl code put into a separate file. If you're unable to deduct how
to add new sections to the current code, I don't think a "dictionary file"
(which would probably be a multidimensional list of regular expressions)
would make things any easier.
