            The only way to top that would to be missing the word "the".

            I mean come on, "sorority girls something something"; sorority is an extremely common word...

                        @DustinB3403 Yep, using Chrome right now with French dictionary selected, all these words are red, except "beaucoup" and actually Chrome.

                                        I'm curious if google crawls this page, and starts adding words that we find missing...

                                        Would be extremely interesting to know.

                                          LOL, I'm confident that that is a "no".

                                            In Chrome's defence, I'd forgotten to tick the "Use this language for spell checking" in the Languages settings... after having an alternative to the default language installed for, well, ever sigh
