I would like Aspell to learn what spelling mistakes I make
and use this information to improve later suggestions for
word replacements.

It would also be nice if Aspell looked at the grammatical
context and suggested noun/verb etc.. replacements
based upon what it is expecting. For instance someone
may spell sea,ce and sea would be suggested offer see
because grammatically there should be a noun not a
verb.

I can ce you.
the ce is coming in.

I obviously don't noun and the doesn't usually refer to a
verb.

strangely I don't get see or sea offered as spelling error
at all but I do get ck and OE.

    Aspell already does the first thing in a way see
    http://aspell.net/man-html/Notes-on-Storing-Replacement-Pairs.html.

    It is unlikly that I will implement the other suggestion any
    time soon as that is beyond the scope of simple spell checking.

    That's a good start (but I've never seen it working)

    but what I really meant was
    could the spell checker learn the types of spelling
    mistakes I make, for instance if I often use ur instead of
    er, e.g I write furn for fern and concurn for concern so
    when the spell checker comes across purm perm gets
    ranked higher.

    This is similar to the replacement pairs idea but works
    on the type of mistake not just the word.
