    <title>Using spell-check</title>

<p>You can choose the right substitution for misspelt words using the Check Spelling dialogue. The misspelt word being checked by the spell-checker is displayed in bold style next to <gui>Misspelled word:</gui>. You can choose from the following corrective actions:</p>

<list>
      <item>
        <p><gui style="input">Change to:</gui> allows you to input a word and use <gui style="button">Check Word</gui> to check the validity of the spelling.</p>
      </item>
      <item>
        <p><gui style="menu">Suggestions:</gui> lists the available substitutions for the word.</p>

        <p><gui style="button">Ignore</gui> allows you to bypass spell check for <em>a</em> instance of current word.</p>
      </item>
      <item>
        <p><gui style="button">Ignore All</gui> allows you to bypass spell check for <em>all</em> instances of the current word.</p>
      </item>
      <item>
        <p><gui style="button">Change</gui> substitutes the misspelt or unrecognised word with <em>a</em> chosen substitute from the <gui style="menuitem">Suggestions:</gui> list.</p>

      <item>
        <p><gui style="button">Change all</gui> substitutes <em>all</em> misspelt or unrecognised words with the chosen substitute from the <gui style="menuitem">Suggestions:</gui> list.</p>
      </item>
      <item>
        <p><gui style="button">Add word</gui> allows you to add the current word to the <app>gedit</app> <gui>User dictionary</gui>. Adding custom words to the <gui>User dictionary</gui> will allow <app>gedit</app> to recognise the word in documents and thus will not be highlighted as a misspelt word.</p>

<section id="define-spell-check-language">
    <title>Define the language to use for spell checking</title>
    <p>By default, <app>gedit</app> will use your current language to spell check your document. If you need to use another language, choose <guiseq><gui style="menu">Tools</gui><gui style="menuitem">Set Language…</gui></guiseq>, then choose the language you want to use.</p>
  </section>

<section id="dict">
    <title>Dictionaries</title>

<p><app>gedit</app> uses <link href="https://www.abisource.com/projects/enchant/">Enchant</link>, a small system utility, for spell checking. Enchant can use several different dictionaries to check your spelling. Two such dictionary back-ends are <em>Hunspell</em> and <em>Aspell</em>.</p>

<p>If the language you want to use is not available in <app>gedit</app>, use your computer's software installer or package manager to install the dictionary back-end that you want.</p>
