Now-a-days, spell checker has become an essential part of any application software and as people use different languages in different regions of the world, they also need different spell checkers. But unfortunately we have only a few spell checking tools only for some limited languages. Especially, south Asian languages are deprived more in this case, though more than 110 million people live in this vast region and use their very rich local languages like Bangla, Hindi, Tamil etc. These languages are far different from western languages in phonetic properties and grammatical rules. This is why the existing algorithms and techniques that are being used to check the spelling of English and other western languages are not that much suitable for south Asian languages; rather they need different algorithms and techniques for expected efficiency. This paper is an approach to presents a new algorithm based on the existing algorithms to generate suggestions for miss-spelt words along with a complete design of implementation of a spell checker which is much efficient for south Asian languages.
