# pspell_new

(PHP 4 >= 4.0.2, PHP 5)

pspell_new — Load a new dictionary

### Description

int pspell_new ( string `$language` [, string `$spelling` [, string `$jargon` [, string `$encoding` [, int `$mode` ]]]] )

pspell_new() opens up a new dictionary and returns the dictionary link identifier for use in other pspell functions.

For more information and examples, check out inline manual pspell website:» http://aspell.net/.

### Parameters

`language`

  The language parameter is the language code which consists of the two letter ISO 639 language code and an optional two letter ISO 3166 country code after a dash or underscore.

`spelling`

  The spelling parameter is the requested spelling for languages with more than one spelling such as English. Known values are 'american', 'british', and 'canadian'.

`jargon`

  The jargon parameter contains extra information to distinguish two different words lists that have the same language and spelling parameters.

`encoding`

  The encoding parameter is the encoding that words are expected to be in. Valid values are 'utf-8', 'iso8859-*', 'koi8-r', 'viscii', 'cp1252', 'machine unsigned 16', 'machine unsigned 32'. This parameter is largely untested, so be careful when using.

`mode`

  The mode parameter is the mode in which spellchecker will work. There are several modes available:

  - `PSPELL_FAST` - Fast mode (least number of suggestions)
  - `PSPELL_NORMAL` - Normal mode (more suggestions)
  - `PSPELL_BAD_SPELLERS` - Slow mode (a lot of suggestions)
  - `PSPELL_RUN_TOGETHER` - Consider run-together words as legal compounds. That is, "thecat" will be a legal compound, although there should be a space between the two words. Changing this setting only affects the results returned by pspell_check(); pspell_suggest() will still return suggestions.
  Mode is a bitmask constructed from different constants listed above. However, `PSPELL_FAST`, `PSPELL_NORMAL` and `PSPELL_BAD_SPELLERS` are mutually exclusive, so you should select only one of them.

### Return Values

Returns the dictionary link identifier on success, or `FALSE` on failure.

### Examples

Example#1 pspell_new()

`<?php
$pspell_link = pspell_new("en", "", "", "",
(PSPELL_FAST|PSPELL_RUN_TOGETHER));
?>`
