Default Spell Check for Office (word, outlook, etc.)

Is it possible for the Spell Check to learn common ways a user mispells a
word? For example, I often type fast and write "acustic" when I mean
"acoustic". When I go to Spell Check the document, the first proposed
correction says "cuastic". If the program could learn that I usually (99.5%
of the time) mean to write "acoustic", and propose "acoustic" as the first
proposed correction, it would save a lot of time.
Get it?

Create an autocorrect entry for acustic with acoustic.
