Correcting Misspellings

Your Language Master SE automatically corrects
misspellings when you type a word. Just type a word
at the main prompt and then press
see and hear a list of correct spellings from which to
choose.
If you type a word not in the Language Master SE 's
dictionary, you'll see and hear a dialog box asking if
you want to "Keep this spelling?" Press
you do.
You can type and spell-check inflections, contrac-
tions, abbreviations, compound words, and proper
names. You can even spell-check phrases, one word
at a time.
NOTE: You can't check possessives like "book's" or
"men's" because they're not in the Language Master
SE's dictionary. But you can get tips on spelling
them by reading the Grammar Guide topic on
possessives. Just type "possessives" at the main
prompt and then press
