            Bug ID: 121363
        Issue Type: DEFECT
           Summary: Norwegian spellchecker doesn't understand how
                    connecting -s- works
    Classification: Code
           Product: lingucomponent
           Version: AOO 3.4.1
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: spell checking
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

══════════
Attention:
──────────
I understand this is the correct place to report bugs, but was unable to find
OOo 3.3.0 from the list; only AOO350-dev and AOO 3.4.1 were available. The
correct build is as stated above and 

═════════
Overview:
─────────
Norwegian uses compound words, and often (though not always), a connecting -s-
or -e- is required; e.g. (the connecting letter has been capitalised):
lekmannSgods (lekmann + gods), hverdagSgjenstander (hverdag + gjenstander),
herjingStokt. OpenOffice.org’s dictionary often does not understand when and
how to use this. Common compound words seems to be included, but when creating
new words (which is considered proper, good Norwegian grammar), the new word is
identified as an error

═══════════════════
Steps to Reproduce:
───────────────────
Example 1)
a) Write “sildefiske” → OK
b) Write “sildefiskereguleringer” → error. Dictionary suggests
   I)   “silde fiskereguleringer” (which is wrong – it appears to believe
“silde” is a verb (translation: “to herring fishing-regulations”),
   II)  “silde-fiskereguleringer” (which is poor and confusing syntax),
   III) “sildefiske reguleringer” (as I, though translated as “to herring-fish
regulations”)
   IV) “sildefiske-reguleringer” (which is acceptable, though not correct).

Example 2)
a) Write “kjøpmann” → OK
b) Write “kjøpmannshus” → error (as bI–bIV)
c) Write “kjøpmannsdatter” → error (ibidem)

And so on and so forth.

═════════════════
Expected Results:
─────────────────
The application should identify the words as being new compound words.

══════
Build:
──────
OpenOffice.org 3.3.0 OOO330m20 (Build:9567) on Windows 7 Professional SP1

════════════════════════════════
Additional Builds and Platforms:
────────────────────────────────
The bug is expected to take place on all platforms using the supplied
dictionary of OOo 3.3.0
