But, when I select > "default", it seems that ispell get back to "british". That means that the /usr/lib/ispell/default.{aff,hash} symlinks point to the ispell British dictionary. Why British is set instead of American depends on your distro, it might be hardcoded, it might be the result of en_{GB,UK} being alphabetically before en_US when trying to guess a choice if there is no exact match for your Japanese locale, .... If there is no way to spellcheck Japanese with {ispell,flyspell}.el, you may want to set ispell-local-dictionary to "american" (otherwise that may interfere with your native spellchecking). If you want that only when writing lisp code, there is surely an appropriate hook for that. -- Agustin
