[Bug 177227] Re: US English spelling is incorrectly marked as misspelled, treated as UK English
Reopen it.
I have the same problem with GB English spelling being correct and I
want US-Englsih spelling to be correct. This is annoying and needs to
be corrected. It has persisted across several versions of Firefox. I
am using Version 7.0 now.

Title:
US English spelling is incorrectly marked as misspelled, treated as UK
English
Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Binary package hint: firefox
I am running the en-US dictionary (I checked this in my browser's
'About' screen and this report will also signify this).
When I type words like 'color' and 'favorite' they are marked as misspelled (I can see the red lines now ;) but they are clearly spelled correctly.
The spelling suggestions offer the UK alternatives ['colour' and 'favourite', respectively]. This leads me to think that the US English dictionary is not correct.
