Yes, probably you aren't using it with the latest Firefox.

Remember that Mozilla converted all spellers to WebExtensions and now it requires Firefox 62 or 63 and above.

Only Firefox+Thunderbird 60.5 to be released on 29-JAN will support WebExtensions (60ESR).

Only Thunderbird still has a legacy extension, but after 60.5 is released I will upload only WebExtensions.

Hello!

Mozilla converted all dictionaries here to WebExtensions.

You must have the latest Firefox to be able to use them (V63 or above).

Then follow the instructions on my guide:

Hello!

Thank you for your comments.

GB also uses -IZE in most words according to the Oxford Dictionary (but there are exceptions).

As a premium account holder of the Oxford Dictionaries, I have access to more information regarding the words, where it states in -IZE words "also blah blah -ISE".

I wrote an example in the FAQ:
http://proofingtoolgui.org/faq.html#11

But pressing the link there will only show the full Oxford description to premium users, persons who are just visitors won't see it. Nothing I can do about it.

I believe that persons from Australia and Canada use -IZE and this speller can also be used by them.

I am planning to create a module for my Proofing Tool GUI tool to allow future AU+CA maintainers to create a list of words to add and to remove in/from the GB speller, so that they can create high quality spellers for their countries, based on mine (it is in my TO-DO list)... what I don't know is who would be interested in such a hard task.

My brother, kind regards!

I will continue working on the speller.

Hello!

Could you remove the speller and readd it?

There was a Thunderbird update that disabled the speller, not sure if it also happened with Firefox.

Also, notice that Mozilla (Firefox) automatically changed all the spellers add-ons to WebExtension.

This means, there are now two dictionaries:
1) Firefox: WebExtension;
2) Thunderbird: Legacy extension.

I believe that 1) won't probably work with older versions of Firefox.

If you have any issues reinstalling, please follow the guide:
http://proofingtoolgui.org/en_installing.html

If it doesn't solve the issue, please send me a private e-mail to try to see what happened.

Thanks!

EDIT: It is always a pleasure to help.

Dear Perce,

Thank you for the nice comments.

The only English dictionary I know of with the local variants is for LibreOffice and OpenOffice (yes, I am the guy who packs the extension for them).

My GB speller also has places from New Zealand, Australia and US.

It is used by other countries such as New Zealand.

A friend (I can't remember if he is from Australia or Canada) told me that the difference there is that they prefer -ize or -ise (can't remember) and since my speller uses -ize and -ise, I believe more than one country can use it.

The build from the other person is from 2006, if you look at his release logs.

That is why I took the task myself, since no one seemed to care.

A few weeks ago I tried pasting part of my wordlist into MS Word 365 and guess what the results were :p

lol

We are reaching a stage which no one has reached before.

I believe that the OpenStreetMap database is used by the British military. I credited it and now the military can also use Firefox and Thunderbird to write their messages, if they wish.

In a few years I have hope that mankind will reach a golden age in open-source software.

My dear brother, thank you for using my add-on.

Kind regards,

Thank you!

Yes, "google" is a verb:

I added it a long time ago.

:-)

EDIT: "Google" is also a company name if written in uppercase.

Thank you!

V2.63 is out!

The "civil parishes" list is huge and it will take me a few more months to add them all (I am adding with copy/paste all the missing ones, one by one).

Always remember that you can send me an e-mail if you find missing or incorrect words.
