The first section of Abiword.Profile contains the built-in defaults and
these are automatically reset everytime you start up. Following the
built-in defaults should be a section

        <Scheme
                name="user_prefs"
                

It is here you need to add SpellCheckWordList="british.hash" It should
then load the british.hash file, but you may find like me that it
complain that british.hash is invalid
