Bug Description
Description:
The spell check that gedit uses can cope with won't and other short apostrophed words but seems to come a cropper on longer apostrophed words like wouldn't.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Start gedit .
2. Type in wouldn't .
3. Press F7
Expected results:
Dialog to pop up saying there are no mispelled words.
Actual results:
Dialog pops up suggesting that I change wouldn to would.
Additional Information:
I am using a British English dictionary.

This a dup of bug #2809 (although I thought bugs were going to be filed here rather than in Bugzilla)?
