Default MSWord spellcheck needs Bible vocabulary esp. places & names!

Many thousands of MSWord users are students of the Hebrew Bible, or Old
Testament and the Christian New Testament, however when I go to type in a
place or proper noun / name, the spell check feature doesn't know the
spelling! MSWord could build this in or have it has an optional download
based on users' translation of choice, i.e., KJV, NKJV, NIV, NASB, etc.
(different translations may have variations of these spellings).

This is exactly what the custom dictionary feature was designed for. You
might well create such a dictionary and share it on the Internet. All a
custom dictionary takes is a text file of words, one word per line.
