When posting here, I use the word "stroke" a lot. When I spell check my post, "stroke" is flagged. Suggestions include "strokes", "stroke's", and "upstroke" (but no downstroke?). "Stroking" is also not flagged. Why is just plain "stroke" flagged? Can I add it to the spell check dictionary?

Can I add it to the spell check dictionary?
By @Semaphoric

No, you can't add words to the forum's spell checker, but try posting in the Back Room. If words can be added, only staff would have the rights to do it.

It's easy enough to ignore it, so not a real problem. It's more of a "Oh, come on, now!"

i just use grammarly (when on my pc) which helps me avoid looking too ignorant.

This spell check lexicon leaves a lot to be desired. Rarely a day goes by that I don't encounter at least one missing word.

Bonafide,

Captcha,

Non-sequitur,

Pixelated,

Stroke,

Stylesheets,

Uninstall,

Vibrance,

Workflow.

I could go on but you get the idea...
