Comment (by dd32):

 This appears to be some kind of Spell button in Quicktags:
 http://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/wp-
 includes/js/quicktags.js#L502

 I would assume that Hebew text doesn't pass as "word" characters in
 Javascript regular expressions causing nothing to happen.

 I uh, vote to remove the button myself, it doesn't appear to be anything
 of use, When it was added 9 years ago, answers.com may have actually been
 useful.

 For reference, answers.com was added in [2476] (previously it was
 dictionary.reference.com, which was either present in b2, or added
 somewhere around !WordPress changeset [300]).
