--- Comment #1 from David H. Gutteridge <[email protected]> ---
Which English variant dictionary are you looking to use? English (USA), or
something else? I've found on Fedora 20 that LibreOffice offers the option of
non-US variants, e.g. English (Canada), but if I change to that, spell checking
stops working. That is, it reports no spelling errors were found, when in fact
it really wasn't able to find an English (Canada) dictionary, I suspect (as I
tested with typos that are glaringly obvious).

>From looking at forums, the first thing to try would be this:

In the LibreOffice menu bar, select: Tools -> Language -> For All Text ->
English (USA)

(That's taken from here: http://en.libreofficeforum.org/node/3068 )

If that works, and you want American English spellings, you're done. If that
works, but you want another English dictionary, it's likely that that
particular dictionary isn't installed. I don't know offhand how dictionaries
are bundled for LibreOffice on Linux distros.

Anyway, I hope this helps.
