Yes, ive been there, but there is only US English, nothing more,

Which language would you like to use?

That is my secret,

Ok, let's pretend it's Portuguese.

You would want to install libreoffice-l10n-pt and (for the help files) libreoffice-help-pt.

Code:

sudo apt-get install libreoffice-l10n-xxx

and how (if someone by the way knows) it is possible to turn on xxx-language dictionary ./ underlining misspelled words ?

Dictionaries (and grammar checkers, thesauruses, hyphenators, etc. if they exist) usually come as LibreOffice extensions.

https://extensions.libreoffice.org/extensions

For example, if you're looking for a Portuguese dictionary, a search for "Portuguese" at the above link returns the following extension: Corretor Ortografico para Portugues de Portugal.
