New issue 22909 by sh.yaron: Hebrew spellcheck does not support acronyms, Maqaf and Niqqud http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=22909 Chrome Version : 4.0.213.0~svn20090923r26919-0ubuntu1~ucd1~jaunty OS + version : Ubuntu Jaunty 9.10 CPU architecture (32-bit / 64-bit): 32-bit window manager : GNOME URLs (if applicable) : None Behavior in Firefox 3.x (if applicable): Same Behavior in Chrome for Windows (optional): Same What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. While trying to write Hebrew words with Niqqud (punctuation) the words are not recognized 2. Typing Hebrew words with Hebrew Maqaf (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maqaf#Hyphen_and_maqaf) the word is marked as invalid 3. In acronyms (usually written with Quotation Mark or Gershayim) I get to red marks - one for the part before the Quotation Mark and one after it while the quotation mark is left unmarked Some simple examples: צה"ל (Hebrew for IDF) יש"ע (Yehuda, Shomron and Gaza) מנכ"ל (CEO) מע"מ (VAT) בע"פ (by heart) מע"צ (National Roads Company of Israel) בס"ד (Besiyata Dishmaya) And so on... What is the expected result? Red Marks for each of the situations What happens instead?
