What to add to duplicate Word?

As a new Apple user I was disappointed for find that initial software did not contain the flexibility of Word. What to add to make it so? Apple says to use pages, numbers, and keynote OR alternatively openoffice.org OR Word for IMAC. As a user with limited needs I was looking for some basics like mail merge or templates as found in home and student applications. Reviews are mixed thus this question to the community. Thanks for your input.

iMac, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.5)

I think you are misinformed, if you want to use MS Office for Mac simply buy it and you can run Word, Excel, PowerPoint and even Outlook. You can easily locate the apps by navigating to Microsoft's web site or going to a brick and mortar store that sells Mac software. Apple Stores do not however you will find one online (Amazon, Ebay etc...) that does. For example:

Also you are not addressing Apple on these forums, we are end users just like yourself. If you want to provide feedback to Apple please navigate to www.apple.com/feedback
