When a word is flagged as incorrect, to indicate you want it perpetually known, please select the “Add to dictionary” option underneath the flagged word.
As a one-off acceptance, please select the Dismiss option.

If you find an obviously misspelled word is not flagged misspelled, please access the online portal at account.grammarly.com/customize ( Link ).
