Hello, I am the Aspell author.

This statement is false.  Aspell's suggestion algorithm was originally
adopted for English, but it has since been expanded to work well with
other languages.  In fact, with out any additional tuning Aspell will
do a _better_ job than Ispell in all cases.

Have a good day and please stop spreading false information about
Aspell.
