Add to Dictionary

When I right click to select a misspelled word, the option "add to Dictionary" is grayed out and therefore unusable.
I am able to "ignore" or "ignore all", but does not add it to the dictionary so that I can continue to use the new Word.
I use a lot of biblical words and abbreviations that aren't in the dictionary of the computer:
How to activate this feature in order to add unknown words in my dictionary?

Having the same problem with a greyed to add to THE DICTIONARY button that I struggled for hours with other responses to suggest (repairs, etc.) but then found a solution.

Open Word 2010 Go file > Options. Proofing > click Personal dictionaries. Then click New and type a custom name on the name bar (which shows .dic cleared before you type custom. Then click on the Add button

ciustom.dic appears in the list of dictionaries. NOT make the custom dictionary the dictionary by default as it suggests, rather go to the drop-down list of languages your favorite (U.K. English in my case), and then select click on OK button on the default all the boxes to quit.

This will create the custom dictionary. I think the problem is that MS is default U.S. English > but when another form of English by default, it fails sometimes to that dictionary personalized to save your own special words

I hope that this stops someone else having the same pain!

  • Remove context menu items get Suggestions and add them to the dictionary

    How can I delete the 'get the Suggestions' and the items of the context menu "Add to Dictionary" for an EditField?

    I request this API targets 4.2 but running this application on 4.7 API (TOUR) presents these two new context menu items. Is it possible to disable the elements of pop-up to appear? I tried setting the indicator of EditField.NO_LEARNING but that does not work.

    Thank you.

    Found the solution. You must set the field. NON_SPELLCHECKABLE Pavilion on the style.

  • Is there a way to add a whole list of words both persdict.dat?

    I added a whole list of words (several hundred) to persdict.dat each word on a line separate then saved the file and everything looked OK. However, none of these words are recognized as OK by Firefox's spell check. Obviously, this is not the way to do. It seems that one must use the "Add to Dictionary" thingie for EACH WORD, WORD BY WORD for it to be recognized by Firefox spell checking. There must be a better way.

    I solved the problem a few days ago. The mistake I made was that I forgot to close Firefox before making changes to the persdict.dat. Once I did that, everything worked as I expected to work after the raise Firefox again. I guess that's the equivalent of what you suggested. Thanks for your reply.

    TY so much... it works now. I see what I was doing wrong. I would right click, but not on the misspelled word and the area to correct the spelling & "add to Dictionary" did not come upward. After reading your response and clicking on the link, I decided to try by clicking right on misspelled word... YEAAAAAAAAAAA!
    Yet once, so I appreciate your prompt response & look forward to transversing again in the future.

  • How do you get the dictionary for InDesign CS 5 to learn a word like "mm" as in dd/mm/yyyy

    Sometimes I can't get the dictionary in InDesign CS 5 for windows to learn the word I use on & more.  The Add button located in front of the add user dictionary is disabled.  How can I activate this button & save something like "mm" in "mm/dd/yyyy?

    Thank you!

    I tried, but it turns out that the problem was that I did not notice it stopped at modal words & phrases.  Once I changed the preferences of spelling, the problem disappeared.

  • V$ SESSION in a procedure / select any dictionary

    Hi all

    I am using Oracle 10 g R2

    I have a PKG_X package that contains a SELECT from V$ SESSION.
    the package is compiled under SCHEMA_X.
    SCHEMA_X has a SCHEMA_ROLE role and in this role, I have the privilege to CHOOSE ANY DICTIONARY.
    but the package is created with compilation errors "table or view does not exist" on V$ SESSION.

    Now if I add the DICTIONARY ALL SELECT privilege system stand alone the problem is resolved.

    Why this is happening? knowing that if I run select * from V$ SESSION to a keg of SQL window I Manon DICTIONARY-ALL-SELECT, in the role and not as stand-alone system privilege.

    Help, please.

    It is infamous granting by the issue of the role. You need the explicit subsidies. For more information, see

  • Firefox crashes after closing any window.

    I have this problem that firefox always stuck at like 20 seconds every time when I close another window of firefox. I usually have several firefox windows open at the same time. When I'm near one of them, the rest of them get stuck seconds before they can do anything, sometimes fell (not common). I see that firefox crashing usually has to do with some windows of firefox were running online video, like youtube or others. It can be any advertising on a Web site that is in the form of moving images. But crashing isn't really common. Just stuck everytime when I close a window of firefox among others.

    I thought it was because my computer is old but Internet Explorer doesn't have this problem on my computer. I even downgraded firefox to version 28 ( I used to have the latest, 36?) That did not solve the problem. I am running on windows 7. I would like to keep using firefox because it allows add-on so I don't want to switch to IE. Does anyone know what the problem is? Thanks.
    

    Take all your suggestions, I updated Adobe flash player. Checked, but there is nothing to update on the graphics card. Check the extensions you mentioned (and disable and enable as suggested), okay, once I have disabled this "dictionary tooltip 1.7" extension, firefox works great. Any delay to the closure of firefox windows more.

    (But the adobe flash player update seems to be a bad idea. Now Firefox, in general, is a bit slower running more often. "But I tell myself that I can still downgrade flash drive and it does not seem to cause a problem with firefox running on my computer). In any case, should I disable this "dictionary tooltip" to solve this problem?

    AW, too bad. I looked hard for a good add-on English Dictionary. I am a stranger and really need a dictionary English somple surf any website. More English dictionary add-on is too fancy. Click on the word and it will be displayed as, that you want you, dictionary, thesaurus, or something else, or what dictionary you want your definition of etc.

    I want just an add-on of simple English dictionary that will give me a definition right now. With this fancy add-on dictionary, my clicking on a single page, double or triple. It's really bad when I have to click 20 times, becoming now forty times (or sixty times) just for a single page. If suggestions about this simple English dictionary add-on is there someone?
