English dictionaries
Hello,
I have this dictionary and what I see when using the programme is only US-spelling. I need British English though and, if possible the option to mark some text as British some as American English, as I switch the language type according to my customers' needs.
In the dictionaries area I found a BE dictionary that is 244 KB as opposed to 6.2 MB for this pack, and the description says it works under OO 2, while under OpenOffice 3 I should follow another link that led me here (with options for Australian and other styles of English but none for British English). I do have OpenOffice 2 on another machine. However I need BE and AE to run under OpenOffice 3 too and hope OpenOffice 2 stays available for the other machines.
What can I do?
Missing words in English dictionary: How to contribute?
Hello,
by creating and reviewing scientific publications, I quite often find words which are missing in the English language dictionary. How can I contribute these words to the dictionary? To thom can I send these word lists?
Thank you
Gerald
