Dozens of words are detected as wrong in German, though very common #155

Väter is unknown, Brüder is unknown, ertöne (Imperativ singular + first person singular of ertönen).

Also upper/lower case must match the input. There is no word like "männer", only "Männer"

The spellchecker is close to unusable under such conditions.

Sorry there are errors. The data comes from OpenSubtitles. Any help (PR) in cleaning up dictionaries or suggestions for better open source data sources would be very helpful.

Unfortunately, I am not a German speaker and don't know what to look for to clean it up.
