This is the user's manual for Aspell
GNU Aspell is a spell checker designed to eventually replace Ispell.
It can either be used as a library or as an independent spell checker.

<h3 class="appendixsec">B.4 Notes on Planned Dictionaries</h3>
<p>According to
<a href="http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Dictionaries">http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Dictionaries</a>, Open
Office dictionaries are available for the following languages, but no
corresponding Aspell dictionary exists:
<ul>
<li>Coptic (cop)
<li>Dyula (dyu)
<li>Fulah (ff)
<li>Fijian (fj)
<li>Friulian (fur)
<li>Khmer (km)
<li>Luxembourgish (lb)
<li>Mossi (mos)
<li>Nepali (ne)

<p class="noindent">If you are interested in converting any of them please coordinate your
efforts with the dictionary author and submit it to
aspell-dict at gnu org when you have something ready.
<p>An unofficial dictionary for Albanian (sq) is available at
<a href="http://psychology.rutgers.edu/~zaimi/software.html">http://psychology.rutgers.edu/~zaimi/software.html</a>. However,
I can not find any contact information for the author, thus I have
been unable to contact him. In addition an Albanian (sq) dictionary
is available for Ispell at
<a href="http://www.7kosova.com/kde-shqip/ispell/ispell.html">http://www.7kosova.com/kde-shqip/ispell/ispell.html</a>.
However, the raw word list is not provided and the author has not
been responding to emails, possibly because he doesn't speak English.
If you have any additional information on either of these dictionaries,
or can speak Albanian and can translate for me please let me know at
<a href="mailto:kevina@gnu.org">kevina@gnu.org</a>
<p>An unofficial dictionary for Malayalam (ml) is available at
<a href="http://in.geocities.com/paivakil/downloads/aspell/">http://in.geocities.com/paivakil/downloads/aspell/</a>.

<p>A dictionary marked as "Planned" or "Maybe" but not listed in

one. If you are interested in helping please contact me at
