LibreOffice, just like a bunch of software, uses Hunspell and/or MySpell (http://hunspell.sourceforge.net/) dictionaries for spell checking. This is regardless of the operating system in use. Making a spellcheck dictionary is quite a big task by itself. It seems there is (or at least has been) a project on SourceForge to create such dictionaries for Guarani: http://sourceforge.net/projects/guarani/. You may try contacting the people behind that project to see if they have produced anything of use. Even if not, perhaps they would be interested in restarting. If there is a spellchecker dictionary available for Guarani, with an acceptable license, it might be possible to convert its files into MySpell/HunSpell and use them. Hyphenation dictionaries are another thing: they use a different format and different data than the spellchecker dictionaries. I know for a fact that TeX hyphenation dictionaries might be converted to a format suitable for LibO, but perhaps it's not the only possible conversion. If there is nothing to convert, such dictionary would have to be done from scratch. By the way, hyphenation dictionaries can also be used in other projects (e.g. OpenOffice, Mozilla) Autocorrect is a third type of dictionary, which is also different than the other two. I think creating this dictionary might be the easiest task of the three: I have written a basic online tool in PHP which could help you crowdsource suggestions for autocorrect. At least that's what it does for me. Hope this helps. Sorry for not posting any links. I hope someone better familiar with our wiki can post pointers to further relevant information.
