How Do You Use Custom Dictionaries In Microsoft Word?
Microsoft Word comes with a default dictionary that it uses to find misspellings in your documents. However, if you frequently use a lot of non-standard terms in your work, you might want to create a custom dictionary. You can create multiple custom dictionaries so no matter what set of terms you might be using, you’ll be covered. Choose “Options” from the “Tools” menu. In the window that comes up, select the “Spelling and Grammar” tab. Click the “Custom Dictionaries” button. Then, to create a new dictionary, click on “New.” Choose a file name for your dictionary so you can easily identify what it is and save it in the directory Microsoft Word suggests, or in a directory of your choosing. Highlight the dictionary you’ve created by clicking on it and then click the “Modify” button. You’re now ready to begin adding words to your custom dictionary. Type the word you want to add in the “Word” field at the top of the window and hit “Add.” Here, you can also remove words from the dictionary
