Yeah, it is hard to read that part. What I usually do is, paste the
abbreviation command
into a new buffer and check with searching for \k to see which part of
the abbreviation
matches the 'iskeyword' setting. This helps understanding which of the 3
different types of
abbreviations are used for that particular one.

Let me ask the question differently. Does your problem happen with a
particular abbreviation
or does it happen with all abbreviations? Are there any circumstances
different between a
working abbreviation and a not working abbreviation? Have you tried,
testing with
vim -u NONE -N (to eliminate the effect of any plugins)?

You might also want to use :verbose set isk?
to see, if Vim knows, when and where that setting has been changed the
last time (for example
a plugin).

I am not sure, if the 'langmap' option has an influence at all.
