38 <term><guilabel>Create root/affix combinations not in
39 dictionary
</guilabel></term>
41 <para>Selecting this option allows the spell checker to register as
<quote>correct
</quote> combinations of root words with suffixes or prefixes even if the particular combination is not listed in its dictionary database of words.
</para>
46 <term><guilabel>Consider run-together words as spelling
47 errors
</guilabel></term>
48 <listitem><para>If this is selected, then words that appear in the
49 dictionary separately, but have been run together, are considered to be
50 spelling errors. For example, even though
<quote>alarm
</quote> and
51 <quote>clock
</quote> might be in your dictionary, if
52 <quote>alarmclock
</quote> is not, it will be flagged as a spelling
53 error.

70 <emphasis>Latin1
</emphasis> is selected, but accept email-style
71 character combinations (like
<userinput>'a
</userinput> for an accented
72 <emphasis>a
</emphasis>) when
<emphasis>7-Bit-ASCII
</emphasis> is
73 selected. Please see your dictionary's distribution for more
