LT keeps tagging contractions like “I’ve” as an issue. The suggestion is that the “ve” should be “Ve”. The rule use seems to be “Not in dictionary”. I have tried putting “ve” in a dictionary, but that has not corrected the problem. I have LT set for English (US).

Are you sure that this message comes from LT, not from LibreOffice/OpenOffice?
Could you send a screenshot? I cannot reproduce this problem here.
If I turn off the grammar checking the contractions are no longer
tagged as an error.

Okay, I found it. This seems to be caused by the rule “Capitalize lowercase words (‘i am’)”. It should be turned off by default in the latest version of LanguageTool. You can also deactivate only that rule in the LanguageTool configuration. It should be under “Capitalization”.
Thanks, I'll give that a try.
