Here how to for Ubuntu (10.10) using Chromium (but Chrome should be similar)Note: I copied to, since I use the German speller from time to time and don't want to overwrite it.1. Download the Afrikaans dictionary here and unzip is to ~/Downloads (where ~ is your home folder)2. Close Chrome.3. Run "cp ~/Downloads/de-DE-1-2.bdic ~/.config/chromium/Dictionaries/nl-NL-1-1.bdic"5. Open chrome again and navigate to this thread6. Go to "spell-checker options" -> "Language settings..." in the pop-up menu.7. From the "spell-checker language:" drop-down select "Dutch - Nederlands".8. Now it should check your words in the text area against the Afrikaans Dictionary.BTW. I hoped to just use Afrikaans, which is on the list of languages, but the dictionary lists are hard-coded in Chromium/Chrome, so if you really want it to be Afrikaans, you'd have to change the sources and compile your own code. Not too difficult, but needless to say, if an update becomes available you'd have to do it again.Cheers!
