What do the 1!1 1,1 etc at the beginning of the english hyphenation dictionary mean? I tried using them on the italian one but that resulted in words being splitted just a letter before the punctuation, like this: "Isabe-l." Probably the dot is counted as part of the word? I resolved that by eliminating the first 1 from the rules in the first section of the hyph file, but I don't know how they work or how that resolved the issue.
Also, in my italian file there's a rule like this one: l'2, which is intended to impede the hyphenation right after the apostrophe for word like l'hai. But as I was reading I found precisely that horrible instance of hyphenation: l'-hai. Does anyone know how to counter this by adding or modifying the rules?
