tsearch to spellcheck

Is it possible to use tsearch2 to check spelling? Something like a
function that takes a single word (and a language id) and returns true
if spelled correctly false otherwise.

Thanks.

You can use lexize() function from tsearch2 (with properly configured ispell
dictionary) - if it returns not NULL value the word is ok.
Also have a look to pg_trgm contrib modle.
