i using ubuntu gnome 16.04.1 lts. during installation, selected german language , europe/tallinn time zone. result, support german, english, , estonian installed. @ least, when go gnome settings » region , language » language, see german, several variants of english, , estonian in list. unfortunately, seems support estonian not installed. neither in firefox nor in evolution, can select estonian spell checking language. tried install language support estonian via gnome settings, gnome settings considered estonian language support installed, witnessed estonian being in abovementioned list. i try install language packages manually via apt-get . however, not want this, guess might confuse gnome settings. how can safely install support estonian? open terminal window , run command: sudo apt install $(check-language-support) based on description, ought it.
