By 'alternative language' i understood as second vocabulary that the 
spellchecker use, if no entries in the default vocabulary matches the 
current word. I see no reason for the spellchecker does not check any 
words, most of them belonging to the default language, 

Moreover, i have never explicitly loaded any vocabulary. I suppose that 
has been done automatically, after the language name has been 
entered. Shouldn't be the same, when entering the name of the 
alternative language?

Language is set to 'predefined' (that  is italian) and spellchecker is 
hunspell (also tried enchant). 
Alternative language that i have tried is english

Spellchecker works fine, provided that no alternative language has 
been set. That is the weird case.

Thank you
