       my question has been/is as to why anyone would use a spell checker
...
          I think we should reinstate phonics in schools so the youth can
once again learn how to read & spell; reinstating Latin & Greek as well.

Subject: [libreoffice-users] Spelling check funnies
To: users@global.libreoffice.org


Hi All,


I read the forum regularly but this is my first post. It's only
light-hearted but I don't see why that should be against the rules.

Using the spelling checker in LO Writer version 5.0.5.2 on Windows 7 Pro, I
recently passed over a fairly common English surname, "Ainsworth".

The spelling checker gave some wonderful suggestions, namely Wandsworth,
Wadsworth,

AIRWORTHY,

WORDSWORTH,

UNSEAWORTHY and

NEWSWORTHY (my capitalisations).

Has anyone else found some funnies. If so ,why not share them? The forum
does not have to be grindingly technical all day every day.
