Dictionary of Pages is awful There are several words missing in the dictionary and there is no option to add words. I wonder why the pages dictionary is not linked to some authentic dictionary. For instance, Xenocentrism is a word that occurs in most dictionaries except Apple. I cant seem to get over this.

Hi!

On Pages, select the text that is marked as wrong and select learn spelling. Your mac will not show mistakes for this word / name in that document, but will in other documents unfortunately.

Hope this helps!
