Bear in mind I know nothing about technology of spellchecking and I havn't used it much in Sigil. And I'm not a linguist. Probably some learning is due.
To find the cure we have to diagnose the patient.
Sigil spellcheck at the moment:
-highlighting of misspelled word can be turned on/off (is checking always on?)
on:
-it seems the spellcheck is triggered by second letter tipped
-it seems one letter words are not checked at all
I think I like the fist one but don't know about the second.
Other spellcheckers I know wait for word break (space, point etc) to trigger spellchecking. Do we need it in Sigil? Is it normal for one letter word not to be checked? Seems so.
The Man Who Started It All defines language like this:
Code:
xml:lang="whatever"
applied to appropriate tag - <span> in his case, could be anything I seem to have learned since I've started this. This should be xhtml epub2 syntax.
From what I've learned
Code:
lang="whatever" xml:lang="whatever"
seems to be epub3 (x)html5 preferred standard.
I'm thinking about context menu [Set Language] already
