I wish I knew. I had given up after, a few times, re-setting the
spellcheck to English just to be sure it was on. I suppose that it may
be that the creator of the English word list possessed only limited
knowledge of the language. I resolved that it might have been a person
who was native to American- English who compiled the list. 

Does anyone else know how we might get word to stop changing our
words.. ;D
