Description: The English US dictionary hasn't been updated since 2011. This means there are plenty of new words that aren't in the LibreOffice spellcheck dictionary such as the words: cyberattack, iPhone, Xbox, Uber, Lyft, TechCrunch, and many, many more. Microsoft Word recognizes all of these words natively. Speaking of which, "natively" is also not in the LibreOffice dictionary. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Enable US English Dictionary 2. Type in cyberattack, iPhone, Xbox, Uber, Lyft, TechCrunch, or natively 3. According to LibreOffice, these words don't exist Actual Results: Words are marked incorrectly with no correct spelling suggestions. Expected Results: Words should be marked correctly or if typed incorrectly, these words should be given as suggestions.

(In reply to phly95 from comment #0) > The English US dictionary hasn't been updated since 2011. Not correct. https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/dictionaries/tree/en However the additional words are probably valid entries to add. And the infrastructure for the thesaurus list and UI could use some attention as well (see bug 99999). =-ref-= https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/dictionaries/commit/en/en_US.dic?id=c875ba1abbe81955d5510aef909a62c01d4515de https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/dictionaries/commit/en/en_US.dic?id=2f0ddaeeb4323ac99afd35d2c4fda643c9ee8bcf

Hello! I update the GB speller monthly: https://github.com/marcoagpinto/aoo-mozilla-en-dict In the GitHub above there are also the most recent version of US, CA and AU done by Kevin Atkinson. I am planning to submit them to Gerrit in my next update. What I am scared of is that someone will always complain about a word here and there, and will take months to give a +2 (the time taken for my GB to be approved was enough for me to release a couple of new versions or so). So, when is the proper date for me to submit GB+US+CA+AU and it be approved in good time? Thanks! Kind regards, >Marco A.G.Pinto ---------------
