Is there somewhere i can update the dictionary in my mac or in pages.

i have been noticing common words that it cannot recognize
 
intraregional (it says interregional in corrections but its a big difference)
ebonics ( it says ebonies which is not the same)
but there are others that i cannot see at this moment
im writing an essay right now
 
Well, if you know the words you're using are actual words (and that you've spelled them correctly), just add them to the spell-check dictionary yourself. Right-click on one, and choose "Learn Spelling."

EDIT: Wait a second. "Interregional" would mean between different regions... but "intraregional" would mean "within a given region," which is the meaning of just the word "regional" in the first place. :confused:
 
intraregional migration - is movement within one region
interregional migration - is movement from one region of a country to another

ya i know learn word but i really suck at spelling, and most of the time i have it wrong, then i check like 5 times, and o... i am right

ya im not the one making these words, their in my book
