Currently in our Vietnamese hunspell dictionary (for firefox and Openoffice), if we misspell đường as đừong , we get three suggestions:

"đừ ong" (adding space, 1 operation)
"đong" (removing ừ , 1 operation)
"đừng" (removing o , 1 operation)

actually we'd like the system to propose us "đường" also, which implies 2 replacements operations: - replacing ừ -> ư and o -> ờ , is there any way to find out what is the max number of operations hunspell does? How to configure that in the .aff file?

Can Hunspell recognize compound vowels or consonants? If not, as a temporary workarouns, can we supply a word list, replacing common typos like that:

ừơ -> ườ

I've just submitted an Autotext file [1] for Vietnamese, which targets many common spelling errors. Would you find that useful?
