          Priority: medium
            Bug ID: 57458
          Assignee: [email protected]
           Summary: Greek spell/grammar checking
          Severity: normal
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Windows (All)
          Reporter: [email protected]
          Hardware: Other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
           Version: unspecified
         Component: Linguistic
           Product: LibreOffice

All word-processors I know (inc MS Word) fail to take into account certain
important Greek grammar rules, to the frustration of native Greek writers,
particularly professional proofreaders who have to spellcheck manually or
ignore the rules. This leads to certain mistakes now commonly cropping up in
publications. This is an opportunity for LibreOffice to gain a unique
advantage. Eg:

    the letter "n" ("ν") at the end of articles is dropped when the following
word starts with certain letters (which a writer has to memorise!).

    "ό,τι" is actually a word, and it is different from "ότι".
    in certain circumstances, longer words get two stresses (eg "η παράγραφός
μου" is correct).
    capitalised words never get a stress (eg "ΌΠΩΣ" is wrong)

If anyone is interested, I can provide more details on the actual rule.

Thanks.
