None of the mozilla extensions and addons from "https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/language-tools/" doesnt a job of being in 2019. Their database are 20 years old where they dont know the word Flipboard which they say is clipboard. SERIOUSLY. None of the english lang or dict works like they are productive friendly for someone working in 21st century where words update daily and social media has changed the words we never thought existed. It doesnt know the word awesomesauce until it is corrected to awesomeness. Most importantly it doesnt detect words from other language that have taken place in English dic like it detects "Laddu or laddoo" as "lad do". LEARN FROM CHROME WHERE IT HAS OPTION TO LEARN FROM GOOGLE FOR SUGGESTIONS. WHERE'S YOURS?

Hello!

I have nothing to do with Mozilla's add-ons being 20 years old.

What I know is that I update the GB speller every month.

You have the most up to date British speller, when the other speller was abandoned in 2006.

If you find missing words, just e-mail them to me, and, if they are in Oxford or Collins dictionaries, I will add them.

It is not possible to learn from Google suggestions since spellers only have a file with words and a file with affixes to be applied to the words file (it is impossible for me to add menus and such, as it only checks spelling).

EDIT (2019-09-22):
I have just added:
48903) laddu + laddoo + ladoo (+plural +'s)
48904) flipboard (+plural +'s - Collins)

"awesomesauce" is a US word according to Oxford and Cambridge dictionaries, so I didn't add it.

In the future, suggest words via e-mail and not by rating my speller 1 star.

    Excellent work providing crucial spell check where it otherwise was not working.

    The big failing of Firefox is the lack of correction as you type. This addresses it 100% for me. Thank you, Marco!

    There are some words missing, but let's acclaim the author's big work for making it!

    Yes, there are thousands of words missing.

    I can't find them all by myself, that is why I need users to e-mail them to me or open a ticket in GitHub.

    Thank you, dear brother!

    Non-native speaker communicating with other non-native speakers in British English, simply because I hate American English.
    Works really well! Thank you.

    This is one of the best dictionaries available on any platform/app/system. Not only has it the most complete set of words, venturing into many different branches of knowledge, but it's also very actively updated, with lots of words added and revised every month. If it's taken into account that this is an open-source initiative, it's not only amazing, it's really amusing. I wish dictionaries for other languages were this well maintained!

    An exceptionally well-kept and up-to-date English dictionary. Highly recommended. The generous author also has versions for LibreOffice and other apps on his web site (I use it for all other Hunspell-compatible apps like Notepad++, SoftMaker’s apps, and the like). The dictionary has been in continuous development for years and I doubt if you can find a better substitute for it. If you look at the change-log for each release, then you will see that hundreds, or even thousands, of new words and combinations are added, bugs are fixed, and corrections and significant improvements are made each time (on a monthly basis so far). Truly one of a kind operation that certainly takes a lot of time and dedication from the author. I have Marco’s dictionary installed everywhere and I take the latest version of it with me on a USB drive to install it on any computer that I happen to use. Kudos to Marco for supporting this gem for so long. I can see the love you are pouring into this work every day. Keep up this wonderful and significant work! <3
