Even the earliest spell checkers were better! I write a lot on here to keep my sanity and several times a day I’m sure my spelling is correct but it gets flagged. About 6 of 7 times, I was right to begin with. Sigh. “Add to Dictionary”

Hadn’t been on Firefox for well over a decade and the Chrome engine turning to crap brought me home. Is there something I should add to fix this? Chrome was nearly flawless, as is every word processor out there. Just can’t get my head around how awful Firefox is at spell check, feel I must must be doing something wrong.

      I know three languages:
      Russian - Native
      English - Shitty fluent (learned on the internet)
      Danish - Basic. I have a B2 cert, but it’s not B2
      My system is in English, I work in English, my browser is set to English, and I prefer to translate Danish to English, because the two germanic languages have alot of direct analogs and loans.
      Firefox, in right click menu: “I can translate that Danish thing to Russian!” WHY?
      I mean, I have Russian keyboard layout, one of three, but why does it look at that.
      I love the browser, but this just infuriates me on daily basis
