Sounds good to me. It looks like there are other entries with the same
problem - e.g. "aura" and "avions" are both also nouns.
But my French is rudimentary at best. Could you review the whole list
and open a PR against the snowball-website repo with your proposed
changes?
I'd suggest we comment out such entries ("|" is the comment character
here) with a note as to why they are omitted. That should help avoid
future requests to add the apparently missing entries.
Cheers,
Olly
