John Smith, Pr and Profesor Juan Pérez read the title as a given name: add French and Spanish professor titles #804

What happens today (master, 2026-10-21):

pr, professeur, profesor and profesora are in no vocabulary file. The bare Pr is the French abbreviation of Professeur, as Dr is of Docteur; only its period-marked spelling is caught, and only by shape. Unlisted titles after a comma reverse the name, and unlisted titles in front become the given name.

Evidence. From tools/name_usage.py (2026-10-21), using the ClinicalTrials.gov local corpus (#801, study officials as typed by sponsors) and US name data:

Pr is the 27th most common text after a comma in that corpus. None of the four has a name reading in the US data, so the vocabulary-collisions criterion has nothing to weigh against them. Other languages' bearer data were not checked.

Proposal. Add them as academic titles (the kind for a form of address, as prof/professor are in mul.toml): pr and professeur (and the feminine professeure) in fr.toml, profesor and profesora in es.toml (also pt? professor/professora are already covered by professor, so check professora), with same_as between the abbreviation and its word, and gender on the gendered pairs. Check each spelling's leading and after-comma readings, and that Pr. keeps its reading.

Out of scope, for their own questions:

• Ass Prof (110 officials) reads given Ass, middle Prof, family John Smith, where Asst Prof and Assoc Prof read titles. Adding ass as a title word is a collision question of its own, and is not proposed here.
• Degree and job words written after a comma (Bachelor 288, Doctorate 190, Specialist 81, Medicine 130) reverse the name the same way. Whether a spelled-out degree belongs in the title or the suffix vocabulary is a separate decision.
• Unlisted credentials after a comma are Should "John Smith, FNP-C" read FNP-C as a credential instead of the given name? #797.
