My XML document has a lot of text content that I maintain manually and Spell Check rightly highlights any mistakes I make. However to view this text better I turn on the 'Wrap Lines' feature, and Spell Check then finds more spelling mistakes. These are always where a word has been 'wrapped' across lines and it is the fragment of the original word that is now on the second line that is highlighted as a spelling mistake, and underlined with a red squiggle.
For example my document has the word 'concert' which has been wrapped over two lines with a 'c' at the end of a line and 'oncert' at the beginning of the next. The 'oncert' is underlined in red, but is not a mistake. If I turn of 'Wrap Lines' then the red line, as expected, goes away.
It's an intermittent issue as well, for example I have 'breakfast' also wrapped over two lines with the 'brea' at the end of a line and 'kfast' at the beginning of the next. 'kfast' is no more a valid word than 'oncert' but doesn't get underlined in red.
I'm running v2011 Enterprise Suite and my spell check settings are English (UK). I'm 'skipping' everything except repeated words and 'ignoring' nothing.

It's not a consistent problem. Attached screenshot - with a large chunk removed from the middle - shows the left and right sides of my document. If I change the width of the window - and I usually work at full screen - then obviously the wrapping changes. This changes the highlighted spelling mistakes on new wrapped words. Indeed if I change the width dynamically I can see the spelling mistakes changing.
You can see that 'some' has been split to 's' and 'ome' and is highlighted as a spelling mistake, yet 'digital' is split to 'dig' and 'ital' and 'ital' is ok.

I tried replicating your example, although I added a few more 'concerts'. Attached image shows that the problem is inconsistent as there is enough text to have the word wrapped twice. Only the first one is flagged as a spelling mistake but not the second.
