At the risk of stating the obvious, American English is rarely spoken in
Great Britain. Either use Tools->Set Language and choose English (US) or
get the "British" English dictionary from our download site at SourceForge
( http://sourceforge.net/projects/abiword ). You will probably want
AbiWord_Dictionary_British.exe, although the abispell-en-GB.i386.zip is
more up to date.
