Adding to Dictionary

This page will walk the user through adding words to the practice dictionary. This feature behaves very similarly to other dictionary features in most word processing software, such as Microsoft Word.

Adding Words

To add a new word to the dictionary, select a word that is misspelled in the document and right-click on that word to open a drop-down menu, then select Add to Dictionary. The word will automatically become added to your practice dictionary.
