I have checked Ispell at command line level. I have made a file named test.txt 
with the content:
colour color night nite

ispell -d british test.txt
finds that "color" is wrong (but curiously accept "nite")

ispell -d american test.txt
finds that "colour" is wrong

ispell -d en test.txt
tells "Can't open /usr/lib/ispell/en.hash"

So from what I can see, KWord should protest in one form or another but not 
leave the text as correct. (Or there is something that I have not 
understood.)

The ispell hashes of my system (some are symlinks)
/usr/lib/ispell/american.hash
/usr/lib/ispell/americanmed.hash
/usr/lib/ispell/americanxlg.hash
/usr/lib/ispell/british.hash
/usr/lib/ispell/britishmed.hash
/usr/lib/ispell/britishxlg.hash
/usr/lib/ispell/deutsch.hash
/usr/lib/ispell/deutschlxg.hash
/usr/lib/ispell/deutschmed.hash
/usr/lib/ispell/english.hash
/usr/lib/ispell/german.hash
