Hello Marta,

I understand your concern about the Spanish Word spell checker not working correctly on words with accents in Trados Studio 2022 SR2 - 17.2.10.19084. Here are a few steps you can follow to resolve this issue:

Step 1: Check the language settings in MS Office. The MS Word spell-checker is determined by the availability of this language spelling ability in MS Office. Any additional settings need to be checked there and it is independent of Trados Studio.

Step 2: If you're using Hunspell, ensure that the appropriate variation of the Spanish dictionary is available in the Hunspell Dictionaries folder. The path to this folder is: C:\Program Files (x86)\RWS\Trados Studio\Studio16\Hunspell Dictionaries (es_ES & es_MX are available).

Step 3: If the required Spanish variant is not available, you can create a Hunspell dictionary and integrate it into Trados Studio. You can refer to the article "Adding spell checking language dictionaries to Trados Studio" for guidance.

Step 4: Alternatively, you can create dictionaries for other Spanish variants using the Hunspell Dictionary Manager available on the RWS AppStore. Make sure to download the latest version.

Step 5: As a temporary workaround, when you use English United States language as the source language, you can select Spanish (Spain, International Sort) or Spanish (Mexico) as the target language. In this way, the spellchecker should work fine.

I hope these steps help you resolve the issue. If you have any other questions or need further assistance, feel free to ask.

Best regards,
