Bug ID: 160772
Summary: Incorrect Spellcheck Suggestions for Compound Words
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 6.0.1.1 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: ayush.bugzi...@gmail.com
Description:
When using the spellcheck feature in LibreOffice Writer, it provides incorrect
suggestions for compound words. The issue occurs when a compound word is
misspelled, and the spellcheck offers suggestions that don't reflect the proper
compound form. For instance, when "desktop" is mistakenly spelled as "desctop,"
the spellcheck may suggest "despot" instead of the correct "desktop."
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open LibreOffice Writer.
2. Type a compound word containing two or more elements.
3. Intentionally misspell one of the elements of the compound word.
4. Activate the spellcheck feature by pressing F7 or navigating through Tools
>. Spelling and Grammar.
5. Observe the suggestions provided by the spellcheck for the misspelled
compound word.
Actual Results:
The spellcheck suggests words that are not relevant to the compound word or its
intended meaning, leading to confusion and inefficiency in correcting spelling
errors.
Expected Results:
The spellcheck should offer suggestions that include the proper compound form
of the word, considering the context and structure of the compound.
Reproducible: Sometimes
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
This issue affects the accuracy and usability of the spellcheck feature in
LibreOffice Writer, particularly for users who frequently work with compound
words. It can result in wasted time and errors if users rely on the incorrect
suggestions provided by the spellcheck. This bug undermines the overall quality
and reliability of LibreOffice Writer as a word processing tool.
