Task D: SPELL CHECK
 
Spell Check Being able to check your spelling is another big advantage of word-processing programs
Spell checking works by comparing each word typed in, to a list of words or dictionary. Any word not found in the dictionary is marked out as a spelling mistake. In Word, misspelled word are underlined in red.

Sometimes though, correctly spelled words can be marked as spelling mistakes. This is because they aren't in the dictionary. Examples of these words are:-
PLACE NAMES for example Place Names
PEOPLE'S NAMES Names
SLANG or ABBREVIATIONS Slang
