For Firefox, Thunderbird, and SeaMonkey
A carefully maintained, community-driven resource for accurate British English spelling.



📢 Update

As of March 2025, this dictionary fully aligns with modern -ise verb spellings (e.g., “organise”).
For specific -ise/-ize variants, some verbs and words MAY be missing or incorrectly included.

⚠ NOTICE

I have been publicly criticised for my GB dictionary, even in front of other developers.
They only point out flaws instead of suggesting new words or corrections.

There are millions of words, and I can't manage them all alone.

This project is very serious.
I spend hundreds of EUR yearly on web hosting, domains, and a premium Oxford Dictionaries account so that everyone can enjoy quality work for free.

I am a disabled person and open-source is almost all I have left in life.
