I'm a relatively new LaTeX user and I want to know:

Is there a way to link an external dictionary to LaTeX and
what dictionaries are recommended?

In the link of @Thorsten I couldn't find anything about Texmaker, and about particularities so:

In general, all you need is *.aff and *.dic file, you can download them from OpenOffice dictionary packages (archive contains these and some other files) e.g. en_GB.aff and en_GB.dic placed in right directory does the trick.
Dictionaries of the languages that you will be using.

For Texmaker specifically, you go: Options -> Configure Texmaker -> Spelling Dictionary

Maybe this should be a comment but I'm so far able to answer and not to comment.
