Remove spell-checking languages from Firefox on Ubuntu
By default, Firefox comes with 3 pre-installed spell-checking languages: English-US, English-UK and English-AU.
If you install more languages, spell-checking panel becomes overcrowded. I suppose you use only one of English language, so you can easily remove extra languages.
In order to remove pre-installed languages you need to:
- Open terminal (
CTRL
+ALT
+del
) - Launch explorer with root permissions (
sudo nautilus
) - Browse to
usr/share/hunspell/
- Remove languages you don't use
- Restart Firefox
