I use Texmaker as well. I sometimes tried the check spelling option. But for me it didn't work either.

Depending on the Version of Texmaker you’re using (the current is 4.0), you might have to restart after switching the dictionary. If that doesn’t help, could you specify what the expected behavior is versus the behavior you’re getting?

I had the same problem but the .dic
files that I used didn't work.
Texmaker Error : Can’t open the dictionary
To solve this error you need to install the spell-checker
Use:
sudo apt-get install myspell-de-de myspell-en-us
or usesudo apt-get install myspell-*
Then find the dictionary:
locate *.aff
There were two directories that contained dictionary files in my computer; /usr/share/hunspell/
and /usr/share/myspell/
. Only one of the "myspell" dictionaries worked, while all the "hunspell" dictionaries worked (so far) .
Probably the .dic
file from "myspell" doesn’t work without a corresponding .aff
file...
Chose the
.aff
file that you want and enter its path into texmaker atoptions --> configure texmaker --> editor --> spelling dictionary
then click ok.Right click on your "code" and click on
check spelling
to make sure it's working.

/usr/share/hyphen
are not the right directory for spelling dictionaries.
The spelling dictionaries are in the /usr/share/myspell
directory and spell dictionaries are in fact always composed of 2 files: the .dic
(which must be selected) and the .aff
file.

Inside /usr/share/myspell/dicts
you should have links to both the .dic AND the .aff file of the language (e.g. en_US
or en_GB
).
/usr/share/myspell/dicts$ ls -og | grep /en_US
lrwxrwxrwx 1 24 Jan 30 11:21 en_US.aff -> ../../hunspell/en_US.aff
lrwxrwxrwx 1 24 Nov 3 13:03 en_US.dic -> ../../hunspell/en_US.dic
Then from configuration, make TexMaker "Spelling dictionary" point to the .dic
file:
/usr/share/myspell/dicts/en_US.dic
This is the description/explanation from MySpell Wikipedia entry:
The spell checking is done using the .aff file for the locale together
with the .dic file. The .dic file is a list of words along with a
group of letters which refer to the affixes found in the .aff file.
This saves space because instead of having include all forms of a
word, like jump (jumping, jumps, jumped), the .dic file will include
the word once and the references to the affixes in the .aff file allow
the construction of all the other forms.
If you don't have an .aff
file, you can get one the en_US .dic/.aff
for Hunspell from wordlist.sourceforge.net.

I had the same problem and in my case I had to give a new path /usr/share/hunspell/en_US.dic
to the dictionary since /usr/share/hyphen/hyph_en_GB.dic
was non existent (on my ubuntu 14.04).
This worked for me! Thank you

I am using Texmaker 4.1 on Ubuntu 14.04, and faced a similar problem; turns out that myspell-en-gb was not installed. Simple fix: sudo apt-get install myspell-en-gb
and make sure the dictionary path is correctly set as /usr/share/myspell/dicts/en_GB.dic
in Texmaker's configuration window.

To configure the spell checker: "Configure Texmaker" -> "Editor" -> "Spelling dictionary" -> click on the button at the end of the line to select the dictionary with the file browser. From the list pick the required dictionary; for my case US-dic
.

I had a similar problem, solved it by using a different .dic
file.
You can get it from here.
Home -> speller -> [yyyy.mm.dd] -> hunspell(...).zip

With Ubuntu 16.04, the spell check was not working for me. The config referred to a non-existent file.
Using locate *.aff
I found en_US.aff
in /usr/share/hunspell
, fixed the config to this file and spell check is now working.
I am using TeXLive installed using this. See also here.

I solved the problem just writing in the terminal $locate *.aff
and then change my directory in texmaker for the new one.

I had the same issue and I fixed it using the following approach:
Download an up-to-date spelling dictionary and make sure it includes the ".aff" file. You can get one from wordlist.sourceforge.net. Unzip, put it wherever you want, and then go to preferences->editor in texmaker and point to where you have your ".dic" file.

(this should be a comment but i dont have reputation enough)
In my case, in /usr/share/hunspell/
I have several files which are only symbolic links and some of then which are the actual files. The only one that work are the ones which are not symbolic links.

I got this issue in Texmaker in my Ubuntu 16.04
There's just following simple steps to get rid of this.
1) Click options in the menu bar of your Texmaker window, and select Configure Texmaker
2) Click Editor
in the leftmost column
3) Check whether the spelling dictionary bar ends with en_GB.dic
or anything else other than en_US.dic
(maybe Texmaker doesn't have in-built en_GB.dic installed - at least this was the case with me)
5) Install the .dic
and .aff
using sudo apt-get install myspell-de-de myspell-en-gb
6) The .dic
file will normally be installed at /usr/share/hunspell/en_GB.dic
. Or else you could just locate it.
7) Give /usr/share/hunspell/en_GB.dic
to the spelling directory in the configure Texmaker and you're good to go.

I am using Texmaker 4.1 on Ubuntu 14.04, and faced a similar problem; turns out that myspell-en-gb was not installed. Simple fix: sudo apt-get install myspell-en-gb
and make sure the dictionary path is correctly set as /usr/share/myspell/dicts/en_GB.dic
in Texmaker's configuration window.

To configure the spell checker: "Configure Texmaker" -> "Editor" -> "Spelling dictionary" -> click on the button at the end of the line to select the dictionary with the file browser. From the list pick the required dictionary; for my case US-dic
.

I had a similar problem, solved it by using a different .dic
file.
You can get it from here.
Home -> speller -> [yyyy.mm.dd] -> hunspell(...).zip

With Ubuntu 16.04, the spell check was not working for me. The config referred to a non-existent file.
Using locate *.aff
I found en_US.aff
in /usr/share/hunspell
, fixed the config to this file and spell check is now working.
I am using TeXLive installed using this. See also here.

I solved the problem just writing in the terminal $locate *.aff
and then change my directory in texmaker for the new one.

I had the same issue and I fixed it using the following approach:
Download an up-to-date spelling dictionary and make sure it includes the ".aff" file. You can get one from wordlist.sourceforge.net. Unzip, put it wherever you want, and then go to preferences->editor in texmaker and point to where you have your ".dic" file.

(this should be a comment but i dont have reputation enough)
In my case, in /usr/share/hunspell/
I have several files which are only symbolic links and some of then which are the actual files. The only one that work are the ones which are not symbolic links.

I got this issue in Texmaker in my Ubuntu 16.04
There's just following simple steps to get rid of this.
1) Click options in the menu bar of your Texmaker window, and select Configure Texmaker
2) Click Editor
in the leftmost column
3) Check whether the spelling dictionary bar ends with en_GB.dic
or anything else other than en_US.dic
(maybe Texmaker doesn't have in-built en_GB.dic installed - at least this was the case with me)
5) Install the .dic
and .aff
using sudo apt-get install myspell-de-de myspell-en-gb
6) The .dic
file will normally be installed at /usr/share/hunspell/en_GB.dic
. Or else you could just locate it.
7) Give /usr/share/hunspell/en_GB.dic
to the spelling directory in the configure Texmaker and you're good to go.

I use Texmaker as well. I sometimes tried the check spelling option. But for me it didn't work either.

Depending on the Version of Texmaker you’re using (the current is 4.0), you might have to restart after switching the dictionary. If that doesn’t help, could you specify what the expected behavior is versus the behavior you’re getting?
