          I think that Google skips ALL proper ash tree use spellings and only, sometimes, uses the expanded ae double characters instead 😞

                That is a seriously old word... I mean electrical engineering has been using it since the early 1900's not to mention the uses for it prior to that. Odd that the Chrome dictionary doesn't have it.

                I find it annoying when the English spelling is right and the American spelling isn't.

                  It seems to be my wont in life to be forever using archaic word forms.

                      How about miscommunicating.

                        Should you send your list to Google?

                          One would assume that Chrome would send back all local additions to the spell check list and eventually Google algorithms would update all users after a threshold of some type.

                            @JaredBusch Hopefully they do that, but it seems that if they were doing that they would have a lot more common words all ready.

                                    @JaredBusch Ya know... for a half minute I thought your were picking on my ability to articulate the English language.... I HAD to GOOGLE walkable to see if I had indeed not created some atrocious word hack.

                                    Alas - walkable is a word...

                                      Walkable is a very common word, in fact.

                                          What I don't get is why the spell checkers don't tap into the power of google. for example sometimes I may misspell a work, chrome (and other apps) won't have a suggestion, yet if I type it into google it will have the "Showing results for:" with the correct spelling.

                                            No API for it?
