Ispell is a free program, its very old (1971) and has been around for free 
for a long time. In that time a lot of dictionairies have been written, 
including a south African one.

Take a good look at the the usage restrictions, you can't for profit use/sell 
the product or derived work.

Main page of ispell is:
