            Bug ID: 139199
           Summary: autocorrect for multiple languages in one document
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.0.4.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: LibreOffice
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: ul.alten at web.de

Description:
It would be nice to set two different dictionarys for one document at the same
time. Another way could be to set a user-dictionary, wchich refers to two
different dictionarys.
As it is now, the sentences need to manually be set to another language for
autocorrect, which can be quite time consuming in the end.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. write a story
2. let the characters speak different languages
now you have a text with different languages within, so you cannot just choose
another language for the whole paragraph
3. select all the sentences belonging to the respective language and change the
dictionary for autocorrect manually

Actual Results:
-it is very time consuming and can be annoying
-multiple selections by pressing ctrl is possible, but you have to have very
precise movement as to not accidentally get into the wrong line and do it all
over again.

Expected Results:
more comfortable way to do this. For example being able to create a new
dictionary based on two different, already existing dictionaries. something
like that maybe.

Reproducible: Always

User Profile Reset: No

Additional Info:
i'd be very delighted!
