Yes. since they are in there, I just checked.

The problem is in case-sensitivity.

Running the attached example outputs:

word "Christmas" - is correct
word "christmas" - is out of dictionary
word "USA" - is correct
word "usa" - is out of dictionary

Some people are using "christmas" and "usa" lower-case words. 
Can libaspell spelling be tuned to be non-case-sensitive?
