On Linux and MacOS, you generally only have to install hunspell or aspell dictionaries on your

system like you do for other applications. See your distro or OS documentation for how to do this.

Windows
|
||||
For Windows, English is included with the installation. For other languages you have to download
|
||||
and add dictionaries yourself. You can find the various dictionaries on the `Free Desktop`_
|
||||
website. You should find a folder for your language, if it is available at all, and download the
|
||||
files ending with ``.aff`` and ``.dic``. These files must then be copied to the following

.. note::
|

|

The Free Desktop link points to a repository, and what may look like file links inside the
|

dictionary folder are actually links to web pages. If you right-click and download those, you
|
||||
get HTML files, not dictionaries!
|

|

In order to download the actual dictionary files, right-click the "plain" label at the end of
|

each line and download that.
