Created attachment 111483 [details]
Red underlined in states name

Steps to reproduce:
1. When typing the states of India and Union Territories it does not spell check automatically.
2. Shows like Misspelled words(Red Underline).
3. But it should not be like that.

Current behavior: Indication of misspelled words.

Expected behavior:Do not show the red underline when editing the states name.
Comment 1 A (Andy) 2014-12-29 19:37:20 UTC
Reproducible with LO 4.3.4.1 and 4.4.0.0.beta1 (Win 8.1).

Steps Done:
1. Open WRITER
2. Write a few Indian states names like for instance "Karnataka", "Manipur", "Punjab", ...
3. Go to TOOLS -> LANGUAGE -> FOR ALL TEXT and select English (India)

Result: The above mentioned Indian state names are red underlined (marked as misspelled).

This is related to English dictionary. In current case they come from Hunspell en-US dictionary. So the states could be added there. Some which are not red underlined are already in dictionary.
Comment 4 G Karunakar 2017-11-29 20:16:16 UTC
Checked on Version: 5.4.3.2
Words need to be added to English dictionaries.
Also could be added to en_IN.dic (English India), though it does not exist yet.

Dear Abinesh S,

To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year.

There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present.

If you have time, please do the following:

Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/

If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.
 
If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.

Please DO NOT

Update the version field
Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker)
Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not 
appropriate in this case)


If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION. To do so:
1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from https://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/

2. Test your bug
3. Leave a comment with your results.
4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo';
4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add 'regression' to keyword


Feel free to come ask questions or to say hello in our QA chat: https://web.libera.chat/?settings=#libreoffice-qa

Thank you for helping us make LibreOffice even better for everyone!

Warm Regards,
QA Team
