Agreed that something needs to be done in this area for the non-space-delimited 
languages. That includes Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Thai at least.

Hi, May I ask a question? Does it work if I use Chinese character frequency 
list to set load_system_dawg? I mean a Chinese character is just a word, while 
English words contain several letters.
