Sometime, the new version of the software has this kind of issue, which 
is related to the extremely large number of dictionaries bundled with 
the software. With the previous new version the spell checker not 
working was the Italian one.

Of course, this is annoying for Windows users (as in the case of many 
issues, this kind of problems happen only on Windows). There is a quick 
solution, though, as you can install the Finnish spell checker yourself 
by downloading from the following link:

I am sure that developers will solve the issue with the next release of 
LibreOffice, which will be out in February/March.

Best regards
