How can I change the OCUK forums spell check to English English rather than US English?

It is telling me English English isn't available as a spell check option!

Normally this is a browser option not a forum specific one? Make sure you have the appropriate language/dictionary installed there, e.g. British English dictionary in Firefox or English (United Kingdom) language set in Chrome (rather than just English)

No need to shout :rolleyes:

I've ended up with English UK but I bet it doesn't include all the extra words from around the UK not used in England.

I personally use Singapore English, just because it makes my English less English English

Is there an Ethnic English spell checker? I only ask because Neil is having trouble communicating with his ethnic neighbours, thought maybe he could write them a letter

IIRC Google used to have extra translation dictionaries like Geordie and Liverpudlian, maybe there's more now.
