I don't know why. I am using Emacs23 under Windows, I don't know if it is the reason. After I used M-x ispell-buffer, I add some words into my personal dictionary. Emacs puts the default personal dictionary at ~/en.pws and ~/en.prepl I don't know what job file "en.prepl" does. I reset the default personal dictionary by (setq ispell-personal-dictionary "~/emacs/aspell/en.pws") But after restart the Emacs, I can't even use ispell.
