Question

Dan is writing a novel that contains the nonsense word "Zerphron", which Word identifies as a spelling error. To prevent Word from identifying "Zerphron" as a misspelled word, he can select the Ignore All option.

a. True
b. False
c. Depends on document length
d. Use AutoCorrect.

Answer 1

It is true that selecting the 'Ignore All' option in Word will prevent the spell check feature from marking 'Zerphron' as a misspelled word throughout the document.

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement that Dan can select the Ignore All option to prevent Word from identifying "Zerphron" as a misspelled word is true. This option will instruct the Word processor's spell check feature to overlook the specific instance of the word in the entire document. It is a helpful feature for words that are not recognized by the spell checker, such as made-up names or terms in a novel. However, it does not permanently add the word to the dictionary; the change is document-specific. Alternatively, Dan could use the AutoCorrect feature to teach Word to recognize "Zerphron" as a correctly spelled word, which will prevent it from being marked as misspelled in all future documents as well.
