For the word column width problem a simple resizing of the SpellcheckEditor window should suffice.

If not, then not, very sorry.

PS
According to this (http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i...sh+word+length) - the average length of English word is 5, Armenian is 16, Russian is 15, German and Spanish is 14.

But I think that it's wrong, so I make a 5-minutes calculation on words in Armenian Bible. Average word's length is >10, but without auxiliary verbs and pronouns (article is the part of a word, and written together with the word) the length is ~13 chars. So, it's seems to be true...
Three times more! Unbelievable.

But main noise/disadvantage not the length itself, but the letters - some letters combinations very very hard now to recognize in suсh small size...
So it's complicated - width of editable field + length of words + letters combinations + font style...

PPS
Intresting to see terrible Korean words in this case
