European Lexicons Penfriend comes with several lexicons for  each language which currently include  French, German, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese,  and Swedish as well as UK English and Scottish Gaelic.  It even has Latin lexicons.  It will also help those with dyslexia and physical disabilities in  English and any of the other languages it covers, providing the highest quality word prediction available.
