language selector from the right-click menu doesn't print out correctly the language name

I, for example, installed the Catalan dictionary (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/general-catalan-dictionary/) and it displays Catalan even if its files are ca.aff and ca.dic. However, surprisingly, your answer worked: I renamed my files into Venetan.aff and Venetan.dic and it displays "venetan". Anyway I would like it to be internationalized. However, I wonder why the Catalan works and why, renaming my files with a capital V, I then see the language with a small v...

From https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Creating_a_spell_check_dictionary_add-on : "The .dic and .aff files must be placed in a subfolder named dictionaries within the ZIP file. Both files must have the locale code as their file name." May be because Firefox lacks my language?
