How do I add words the Yahoo email spell check dictionary?

Every time I run a spell check on a Yahoo email message that I intend to send, it flags my name as being misspelled. I would like to be able to add my name (and other names/words as well) to the spell check dictionary to avoid this inconvenience.

    Short answer: You CAN'T!!!

    Adding words is not an option in the Yahoo! spell checker.

    However, if you use Mozilla Firefox, you can install dictionary extensions in many different languages and add to them just by right-clicking and selecting "Add to dictionary" or "Languages" > "Add to dictionary", depending on the context.
