STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Set language to British English 2. Run spellcheck in Kmail or Kate 3. OBSERVED RESULT "endeavour" is flagged as incorrect, with "endeavor" suggested as correct spelling. EXPECTED RESULT "endeavour" should not be flagged as incorrect.

Qt Version: 6.6.2 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION 'System Settings'.'Region and Language' shows language as 'British English'.

"sudo apt-get install hunspell-en-gb" seems to have solved the problem. Not sure why I was being given the option for UK English if the dictionary wasn't installed, but working OK, now.
