Resumen en inglés We present a language–independent spell–checker that is based on an enhancement of the n–gram model. The spell checker is proposing correction suggestions by selecting the most promising candidates from a ranked list of correction candidates that is derived based on n–gram statistics and lexical resources. Besides motivating and describing the developed techniques, we briefly discuss the use of the proposed approach in an application for keyword– and semantic–based search support. In addition, the proposed tool was compared with state–of–the–art spelling correction approaches. The evaluation showed that it outperforms the other methods
