Description Alexey Kouznetsov 2010-04-27 15:32:00 UTC 
Version:           неизвестная (using 4.3.5 (KDE 4.3.5), Mandriva Linux release 2010.0 (Official) for i586)
Compiler:          gcc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.31.12-desktop-3mnb

There was an option to change dictionary in KDE 3.x. KDE4 lacks it :( Here is only possibility to choose <i>language</i>, but what to do if language has several languages? For example, there are two aspell dictionaries for Russian: ru-ye.rws and ru-yo.rws (historical reasons for that are off long ago, though). Some users use first one, some users use sencond and many people use both... But if even I write 

master ru-yo

to /etc/aspell, kde still uses ru-ye... Yeah, Aspell then begins use ru-yo, as expected. Hmmm, what to do?

Well, i see (after several hours of search) that KDE now uses  myspell instead of Ispell/Aspell. But question is the same - will it be possible to choose dictionary for sonnet?
Comment 2 John Layt 2010-08-07 22:06:45 UTC 
In System Settings / Regional / Spellchecker you should be able to choose from the installed dictionaries.  Does this not work?

It still says "language", but the list now contains all the different variants, with (hopefully) properly translated descriptions of the variants, instead of the obscure shorthands the spelling backends give us.
