They're used for animal species that generic terms such as "herd" or "flock" wouldn't fit, but because domestic cats don't live in groups as feral ones do, "clowder" isn't seen often.

How do weighted dictionaries work?

GROUP Technologies AG
Weighted dictionaries represent an effective content checking technology: dictionaries and phrases covering a particular subject area are grouped into a category, while a weighting algorithm ensures that a single occurrence of a word does not cause a threshold violation, filtering taking place only when the word occurs several times or a combination of words is found. Special dictionaries for anti-spam functions allow a differentiated configuration with a high degree of filtering.

What are "translation dictionaries" and how do they work?

East Bay Technologies - Frequently Asked Questions
Translation dictionaries have words in them that are converted or translated into other words before they are spoken. For example, when chatting, many users use the LOL acronym that means "laughing out loud". If IM Speak! spoke LOL it would sound funny, so the translation dictionary converts LOL to "laughing out loud" and speaks that instead. The translation dictionaries can be used for dialects, acronyms, joke conversions (English to redneck) etc., or anything else you can dream up.
