I am typing a non-ordered bullet point in Writer. I get to the end of the phrase and type, ‘you[ENTER]’. The word ‘you’ is changed to ‘younger’; ‘him’ is changed to ‘himself’.
Typing an ending space removes this behavior. And I see that the next time I put the cursor on that bullet point, the appended space has been removed.
Why doesn’t the program also recognize ‘you’ as a valid word? And ‘you’ is a lot more common than ‘younger’!
Thanks,
This doesn’t happen on my LibreOffice 7.0.2.2 on GNU/Linux distribution openSUSE Leap 15.2 using native packages from TDF (libreoffice.org) and having set paragraph language to English (USA).
Choose menu Tools - AutoCorrect - AutoCorrect Options… - Word Completion tab, and check the values there.
See LibreOffice Help on Word Completion.
LibreOffice 6.4.7.2 (x86); OS: Windows 6.1.
