Question 5.6

Can I set the dictionary based on the group I’m posting to?

Answer

Yes, say something like 

(add-hook 'gnus-select-group-hook
          (lambda ()
            (cond
             ((string-match
               "^de\\." (gnus-group-real-name gnus-newsgroup-name))
              (ispell-change-dictionary "deutsch8"))
             (t
              (ispell-change-dictionary "english")))))

in ~/.gnus.el. Change "^de\\." and "deutsch8" to something that suits your needs.
