Maybe we will be able to tell you what was > wrong about it. The setting was just: (setq ispell-personal-dictionary "~/.aspell.en_US.pws") That file was just a plain word list. Above the setting I'd left this comment: ;; ispell.el claims that the default personal dictionary should be ;; ~/.aspell.en.pws, while aspell itself thinks it should be ;; ~/.aspell.en_US.pws Right now I've changed the dictionary to what ;; aspell thinks it should be, and we'll see if that confuses ispell.el ;; at all. Though TBH at a remove of several years, I don't really remember where these ideas came from. Thanks, Eric
