Default Not happy with "The staff are happy" OR "The staff is happy"

When I try to use 'viz' without the stop (which is correct), I get a
spelling error and a right-click gets me the suggestion 'wiz'.

Slightly OT:- 'viz' is listed as an error, the correction being 'viz.'
This is wrong. The 'z' in those abbreviations ending in it is an
old-fashioned full stop and is not part if the abbreviation itself
which is 'vi', for example.
