AFAIK, hunspell is used for all dictionaries so the problem is not the
engine but the dictionary itself: they need to be build around the
idea of using compound words and that huge work (it seems) is not
complete yet.

Hi Robert, *,

I'm not very deep involved in spellchecking, but nevertheless trying a
shot..

AFAIK, LibO dictionaries are the same dictionaries from OOo.  If you
have a custom dictionary where you added the words you miss, you can
"import" (I mean, copy to the right location) that dictionary into
LibO user profile. See here for more details about the user profile:

One of the reasons, perhaps the main reason I have not upgraded to
LO from OpenOffice 3.1 yet is that I dread having to go through the
process of adding over a thousand compound words to the spellcheck
dictionary.  This dictionary has almost NO compound words in it!
Does anyone know if this problem has been addressed with LO 3.3.  I
am using the U.S. English version.  If this severe shortcoming has
not yet been addressed yet, I think we should do so before version
3.4.

If I remember well german, dictionary changed to hunspell dictionary
engine for that reason. German and many more languages' words are
compound words in a very wide range so that problem arose from
beginning. Not shure what spellchecking engine is used for english
languages spellchecking - I guess it's aspell which has poor support for
compound words.

But all guessed. Not enough insight in that topic.

[.. impact of poor spellchecking ..]
