"ÁáÍíÚú" to setOf(CATALAN, CZECH, ICELANDIC, IRISH, HUNGARIAN, PORTUGUESE, SLOVAK, VIETNAMESE, YORUBA),

Currently "Como estas" returns SPANISH while "Cómo estás" returns PORTUGUESE. Digging further I realized that Spanish was missing from the set of allowed languages for many of the Spanish accented characters:

á = ‘ + a
é = ‘ + e
í = ‘ + i
ó = ‘ + o
ú = ‘ + u
ñ = ~ + n (this one is ok)
ü = ” + u

Hi @joeporter, thanks for reporting this issue. Indeed, somehow I missed to consider Spanish for these accented characters. That was probably because these accents are only used if the default stress rules cannot be applied to a Spanish word. Therefore these accents are somewhat rare in Spanish, so I forgot to add them. I will fix that.
