Not to my knowledge--the reason Gmail can do it is because it is looking for phrases frequently used in business letters/memo.

Now, you might be able to leverage the autocorrect feature to accomplish your goal--maybe set Word to automatically replace "aer1" with "aeration"

Thank you for the reply. But I believe this needs to be automated. If I understand this correctly I would need to manually build a custom dictionary really.


It'd be nice if Word could give you suggestions for words you have typed in the document. It scans constantly for spelling errors. I don't understand why can't they add such a useful function. It would help students so much typing our 6000 words reports.
