            Bug ID: 113739
           Summary: User dictionaries need support languages with rich
                    affixation and/or compounding
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.0.0.0.alpha1+ Master
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Linguistic
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: nemeth at numbertext.org

Description:
While adding a new word to the user dictionary is easy in a language with
relatively simple morphology, several languages need a more sophisticated
method to handle the problem of the dictionary extension.

Hunspell spell checker supports to add a new word to the dictionary with the
flags, ie. affixation and compounding of a known *sample word*.

This enhancement uses this Hunspell feature by extension of the
language-specific (not "All" languages, but "en-US" etc.) user dictionaries via
a new "Grammar By" field.

Simple English example:

Let be "crowdfund" the new word (missing from the American English dictionary)
in an en-US user dictionary.

Adding also the dictionary word "fund" in the optional "Grammar By" field, the
new word "crowdfund" will be recognized with suffixes of the word "fund"
automatically, too:

crowdfund’s, crowdfunds, crowdfunder, crowdfunders and crowdfunding.
