It's set up to auto-correct common misspellings of words. If it doesn't recognize the word, it will outline it in red and alert you to a possible misspelling. If you are purposely misspelling a word, the first time it will auto-correct, so you have to type it again, at which point it will outline it in red, but will not auto-correct. If you have typed an entire paragraph with no alerts, you can assume everything has been spelled correctly, though of course like any spell-check program it doesn't take into account words that are homonyms and aren't used in the proper context.

I just use Google chrome. It's got a spell check on everything I write, which is nice.

I think that my spelling mistakes are being fixed automatically, they must be right or I would notice and then check it with WordWeb which is a free spellcheck program.

They removed it so the trolls would feel more at home and not made to feel inferior in any way. We don't want to make fun of their lack of intelligence.

If you make a spelling mistake it is underlined in red, how you correct it I don' know.
