Bug ID: 155087
Summary: Autocorrection in Romanian applies to existing words
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.5.2.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
I don’t see this in English and French, but in Romanian it happens often. For
example, the latest occurrence of this, *oua* (the correct form to say *a oua*=
“to lay an egg”, or: *ar oua*=would lay an egg etc) is automatically corrected
to *ouă* (eggs).
That is related to a trend where auto-correction is used for Romanian to get a
word with diacritics by typing the form without them, but it leads to errors
like the above. (That trend might be related instead to a past period when
diacritics/keyboard layouts for Romanian where less easily accessible.)
This happens a lot, I cannot give many examples from the past, but they follow
this model where a word without diacritics is replaced automatically with one
with diacritics, which makes sense sometimes, but in many cases leads to
replacing the correct word with the wrong one.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. type in Romanian "ar oua" ("would lay eggs", verb)
2. press "Space"
Actual Results:
"oua" is corrected to "ouă" ("eggs", noun)
Expected Results:
no correction should occur for existing words
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: Yes
Additional Info:
Existing words should not be auto-corrected.
I have specified a LO version, but this is not version-specific.
