------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mon Oct 20 10:05:15 +0000 2008 ------- Hi there. I'm frustrated at the South African English spell checker that I am using on OpenOffice 2.4 (shipped with Ubuntu Linux v.8 - Hardy) What I mean by "plural words are sometimes falsely flagged as spelling errors", can be simulated as follows: 1. Start a new ooo writer document using the English (UK) spell checker. 2. Now type the following words: affairs, components, roles. 3. Press F7 to run a spell check. 4. No spelling errors. 5. Set the dictionary language (for the document or for the above selection of text) to English (South Africa). 6. Press F7 to run a spell check. It marked some of these words as spelling errors: "affairs" is marked as an error. Suggested word: "affair s". "components" is not marked as a spelling error. "roles" has many suggestions - "role s" being one of them. There is a pattern of the above for most plural words, when using the South African English spell checker. Please help.
