Pidgin is a tool for using lots of different communication protocols, like XMPP, irc, icq, and even lots of closed ones via plug-ins (Steam, discord, facebook, mattermost…)
To add more dictionaries to the spellchecker (gtkspell) you gotta search for hunspell packages.
In Arch these look like hunspell-en_AU
. They are spread throughout extra
, community
, and the Arch User Repository.
