Creating Hunspell custom dictionaries

Trados Studio contains dictionaries for a number of languages. You can also create additional, custom dictionaries for the Hunspell spell checker. However, if you want to modify a custom dictionary for the Microsoft Word spell checker, you must do so in Microsoft Word.

Procedure

  1. Go to File > Options from the Ribbon.
  2. In the Options dialog, in the navigation tree, select Editor > Spelling. The Spelling settings are displayed on the right.
  3. Select Custom Dictionaries to display the Custom Dictionaries dialog.
  4. Select New to display the Create Custom Dictionary dialog.
  5. Enter the name of the new dictionary in the File name box and select Open.

    When you create a dictionary, the dictionary is valid for All Languages. You can modify the dictionary so that it is valid for just one language.
