Bug ID: 131487
Summary: Words whose characters span multiple languages should
not undergo spell checking
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 6.4.2.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: Linux (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Linguistic
Assignee: [email protected]

Description:
When writing a document using multiple languages, it may happen to find pieces
of text that look like a single word, but where a part of the chars belong to a
language and the other part to another language.
For instance, in Italian, it may happen to write things like «Questo è un
rapporto sull'International Conference on...» (This is a report on the
International Conference on...).
Here "sull'" is in Italian and "International" is in English. However, because
of the apostrophe, LibO sees "sull'International" as a single word and tries to
spellcheck it. Apparently, the spellchecking is practiced based on the language
of the last character (i.e., English in this case). Obviously, it fails,
because "sull'International" is neither an English word nor an Italian one.
IMHO, when LibO sees a word with mixed language, it should consider it as a
word whose language is None.
