Case insensitive dictionary search with enchant

Question

Is there a way to do a case-insensitive search in enchant?

I am trying to achieve the following:

import enchant
d = enchant.DictWithPWL("en_US","mywords.txt")

d.check("Alexandria")
True
d.check("alexandria")
False

Both cases should return True

Answer 1

I haven't found anywhere any information on setting Enchant for case-insensitive matching, so for the time being this is my solution, though it obviously decreases performance considerably:

if d.check(word) or d.check(word.capitalize()):

Answer 2

As per you example, it should return True.

import enchant
d = enchant.DictWithPWL("en_US","/home/user/yourscript.py")

a=d.check("import")
print(a)
a=d.check("Import")
print(a)

Output:

True
True
