Remarks

For a custom dictionary, you must first set the LanguageSpecific property to True, before specifying the LanguageID. Custom dictionaries that are language specific only look at text formatted for that language.

Some of the constants listed above may not be available to you, depending on the language support (U.S. English, for example) that you’ve selected or installed.
