#MS WORD 2008 FOR MAC DOWNLOAD#
One possible, partial, fix: if you can download a dictionary from Aspell (or elsewhere), you may be able to load it as a custom dictionary into Word. Word 2004 includes proofing tools for more languages than Word X did, most notably Portuguese and Brazilian Portuguese. MacOffice will only offer actual definitions for English if you want definitions for any other language, you will need a third-party tool. Grammar checking is very limited-you will only see grammar files for a few languages.

Spelling is the most basic form of proofing, so the languages listed here can all be spellchecked. Note that "Dictionary" is used in Office 2004 as a generic term for a proofing file.

Note: Office does not support right-to-left languages. All versions of Office should come with the same assortment of languages, whether retail standard, retail home and student, or a volume license. Microsoft lists supported languages in Word Help for Office 2008 (topic: "About proofing tools", online help must be active) and Office 2004 (topic: "About Microsoft proofing tools").
