Afrikaans Language for spell checking

Post by Brucern »

FreeOffice is the best alternative to MSO. Installed it on several PC/Laptops for friends and family. But I can't download and install the Spell Checking for AFRIKAANS. Hunspell It's greyed out.
Where do I find the Spell Checking for Afrikaans? I use to have it on an older version of FreeOffice.

Thank you for your reply re: Adding AFRIKAANS language dictionary. AGAIN I followed the guidelines and again it did not work. Either with Windows 10 &11 as well as Linux Mint.
It is still is not possible to add AFRIKAANS. I followed the guide manual. It does not install. The Afrikaans language is greyed out and will not show as installed.
Is this perhaps I'm using the free-to-use issue of Text Maker 2024? I use to easily install an extra language for my friends and on my older PC, but it will not work now.
Can someone please help me. I love this software as it serves my purpose.
