Checking spelling and grammar
Writer provides a spelling checker, which can be used in two ways.
AutoSpellcheck checks each word as it is typed and displays a
wavy red line under any misspelled words. When the word is
corrected, the line disappears.
To perform a separate spelling check on the document (or a text
selection) click the Spelling and Grammar button. This checks
the document or selection and opens the Spelling and Grammar
dialog if any misspelled words are found.
Here are some more features of the spelling checker:
• You can right-click on a word with a wavy underline to open a
context menu. If you select from the suggested words on the
menu, the selection will replace the misspelled word in your text.
Other menu options are discussed below.
• You can change the dictionary language (for example, Spanish,
French or German) on the Spelling and Grammar dialog.
• You can add a word to the dictionary. Click Add in the Spelling
and Grammar dialog and pick the dictionary to add it to.
• Click the Options button on the Spelling and Grammar dialog to
open a dialog similar to the one in Tools > Options > Language
Settings > Writing Aids described in Chapter 2. There you can
choose whether to check uppercase words and words with
numbers, and you can manage custom dictionaries, that is, add or
delete dictionaries and add or delete words in a dictionary.
• On the Font tab of the Paragraph Styles dialog, you can set
paragraphs to be checked in a specific language (different from
the rest of the document). See Chapter 7 (Working with Styles) in
the Writer Guide for more information.
Writer does not include a grammar checker, but you can install an
extension such as Language Tool and access it from Tools > Spelling
and Grammar. (See Chapter 14 for more about installing extensions.)
Language Tool adds a new menu item and submenu to the Tools menu,
from which you can configure the tool and check or recheck the
document.
Using built-in language tools
Writer provides some tools that make your work easier if you mix
multiple languages within the same document or if you write
documents in various languages.
