Can British spelling be added to the Spell Checker

[attackzack]

Hello,

I am curious if British Spelling could be added to the Spell Checker. It is counter productive to correct the spell checker over and over!

Us Canadians like the letter U, and use it in colour, armour, ardour, and dialogue. Maybe I am the only one. But still!

We rid ourselves of "Frenchiness" in our spelling long ago here in the United States . . . :grin:

well, is there any chance that the word "########" be installed into spell checker? Often, that word "########" is being censored out as bad words like C r a.... and B...rhymes with Witch...etc. So any chance?

grr.....I mean C O L O S S A L.....that word is NOT a profanity! grrr....argh! :devious: :cross-eye :sleep:

######## = c o l o s s a l

Good grief, you're right. That filter is broken.

Is the filter saying ######## is a "bad word?"

[Ro-gan]

!?!?!?!?!

:eek:

How is that a "bad word????"

That's an excellent idea Zack. Us Malaysians use British English too. :)

c o l o s s a l was added to the filters a long time ago. It had something to do with a website that was soliciting on HCRealms or maybe one of the other realms.

There's no reason to add UK English to the spell checker. Everyone knows Brits, Canucks, Aussies, and others who use the Queen's English don't need assistance with spelling.

It's only the Yanks who can't spell worth a fart, and need the crutch of a spell checker to make a coherent post. And even then they manage to mess it up.
