I can't get Hunspell to properly spell any word that has an apostrophe like "isn't" or "doesn't" … it keeps reporting them as errors and suggesting "sin" as a replacement for "isn't".
$ echo "isn't" | hunspell
Hunspell 1.2.9
& isn 9 0: sin, ins, ism, is, in, inn, ion, isl, is n
*
Does anyone know what is going on ?

I don't know from which application you are using Hunspell. It might be:
- OpenOffice.org auto-replacing the straight quote by the apostroph ’
- it might be Firefoxx not accepting the ' as part of a word, thus not passing it to Hunspell.
Both are known issues for these applications.
