Examples? It's the Oxford American, so it's pretty comprehensive.

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

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. 😕

intraregional migration - is movement within one region
interregional migration - is movement from one region of a country to another
