There are dictionaries list for American/US English, British English, Canadian English, Australian English, Oxford English, New Zealand English, and South African English, on that web page.
There are 4 different British English dictionaries I created with the "kpp" in the name of the file. There are spell-checking/thesaurus/hyphenation "dictionaries with 98,000 words, 217K, 390K, and 638K, words in the file's spell checking word list. The thesaurus part has over 140,000 words and phrases.
So your British English is covered. On 02/16/2012 07:33 AM, Spiff wrote:

So the problem still remains unsolved, autospellcheck does not work " Hi Sharon, First I didn't notice you're from the UK, so I wasn't able to advise you what AutoSpellcheck Dictionary extension to choose and install. Although it's a US-site, the mentioned pages also offer several(!) dictionaries for Great Britain English. Go to: http://libreoffice-na.us/English-3.4-installs/dictionary.html#english and have a look at the items that are shown for "English (Great Britain)". Good luck, and let us know if it helped. -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/LibO-3-5-0-Writer-AutoSpellcheck-doesn-t-work-for-Dutch-language-tp3745292p3750034.html Sent from the Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
