Dear Claudia dear all
I have installed the german, french spanish ,extended american
dictionaries in
/usr/share/AbiSuite/dictionary

rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 2019076 mar 2 14:35 american.hash
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 857344 mar 2 14:34 american.hash.big

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 669852 mar 2 14:33 american.hash.ori

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2019076 mar 2 14:33 deutschlxg.hash
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1081696 mar 2 14:33 deutschmed.hash
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2539952 mar 2 14:33 espanol.hash
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2736800 mar 2 14:33 francais.hash

If I copy deutschlxg.hash in american.hash as shown I do get german
spelling

I can send these dictionaries to any one who need them

Best regards

Yours

Bernard
