The problem with writing a macro as you are doing is that you have to write a sequence for each word, which will make the macro -- eventually -- so bloated that it will run increasingly slowly, plus it will be difficult to prevent duplication.
I don't know how often you need to do this (or want to do this), but if you have a great need to do this and to do so on a frequent basis, you might want to invest in my set of macros called
EditTools. One of the modules included in the macro is called Language Conversion, which is described
here. This module will work for converting any language to another language. I use it regularly to convert from non-U.S. spelling to U.S. spelling in the medical books I edit.
