Australian dictionary missing plurals

[Jason]

I'm using the Australian dictionary (http://www.telerik.com/support/code-library/dictionaries-for-radspellchecker) with the rich text editor, but it highlights most plurals as incorrectly spelled.  Is there a simple way to either add plurals to the dictionary, or ignore plurals?

Hi Jason,

Thank you for writing.

We only provide the english dictionary, all other dictionaries are provided by our customers so it is possible that this one is incomplete. Unfortunately there is no simple way to either ignore or add these to the dictionary. In this case I will recommend you to find a better and complete dictionary.

I hope this information helps.

Is there any documentation on how to create my own dictionary, or the tdf format, or where to get a more complete dictionary?  I can only find the ones provided at http://www.telerik.com/support/code-library/dictionaries-for-radspellchecker.
Is there support for HunSpell and open office dictionaries, as there is in the web RadSpell control? (http://www.telerik.com/support/code-library/using-openoffice-spell-provider-in-radspell)

Hi Jason,

Thank you for writing back.

The tdf is basically a text file that contains words separated by semicolon (metaphone's). Detailed information about these can be found in the following articles:

• Metaphone - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
• Soundex, Metaphone example » Spell checker making tutorial
• The Double Metaphone Search Algorithm | Dr Dobb's
• Soundex - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Another approach is to add the words directly in code. Detailed information can be found here: Spellcheck.
 
Currently we do not have support for HunSpel.

I hope this information helps.
