Hi Bastian,

it definitely works under Linux. Maybe some other Windows develoepr here can 
comment on this further?

In Kate, we use the Sonnet spell checking library, which in turn has several 
backends from ispiell to aspell and hunspell (and what now?!). Maybe one of 
this libraries need to be available on Windows as well? Not sure.

Besides that, did you try to change the dictionary through the Tools menu?

Greetings,
Dominik
