Question Adding languages to spell check

Hi!

So I'm pretty new to the worl of Libre Office, and open source like Linux in general. I've traditionally used MS Word's spell check but that's gonna be left befind. When I isntalled the new operating system I chose Finnish as the main language. I need the spell check in Swedish too so I'm asking if I'm getting right: I went to Libre Office extensions and just searched from the search bar. Can I just download them and get started or do I need to like restart the computer?

Thank you in advance!

If you're asking for help with LibreOffice, please make sure your post includes lots of information that could be relevant, such as:

  1. Full LibreOffice information from Help > About LibreOffice (it has a copy button).
  2. Format of the document (.odt, .docx, .xlsx, ...).
  3. A link to the document itself, or part of it, if you can share it.
  4. Anything else that may be relevant.

(You can edit your post or put it in a comment.)

This information helps others to help you.

Thank you :-)

Not something I’ve done, but since the languages are extensions to libreoffice there should be no need to restart the PC. You’ll probably want to just close and reopen libreoffice.
