# SpellcheckEngine

The name of a section in the configuration file, in which you set the parameters that are required to check spelling.

The spelling checker is used as follows:

- `AnswerBank` systems - Answer Server checks any rules that you send to the `TestRule` action. A correction might be returned in the response, in the element `spellchecked_rule`. This correction is not used by the Answer Bank system (Answer Server always uses the rule that you supply), but if appropriate you can resend the action with the corrected rule.
- `Conversation` systems - When a user submits input that does not trigger any tasks, Answer Server runs the spelling checker. If a spelling correction is possible and that correction would trigger one or more tasks, the user is presented with the suggested correction and a list of matching tasks through the standard disambiguation prompt.
