Spell checker engines rely on dictionary to decide that a word is correctly spelled. To tell
the spell checker engine that an unknown word is actually correctly spelled, you need to add
that word to its dictionary. There are two ways to do so:
- press the Learn button from the Spelling
dialog;
- invoke the contextual menu on an unknown word, then press Learn
word.
Learned words are stored into a persistent dictionary file. Its name is composed of the
currently checked language code and the
.tdi extension, for example
en_US.tdi. It is located in the folder:
-
folder on Windows XP
-
folder on
Windows Vista
-
folder on
Mac OS X
-
folder
on Linux
To delete items from the list of learned words, press Delete learned
words from Spell Check
preferences page.
