Adding a new word to the dictionary

Hi I want to add a new word to the custom dictionary. Every time I type the name of my sons new school in an email in Outlook I get that wiggly red line under it. How do I add a new word to the dictionary? Any suggestions? It's driving me crazy.

Trying doing it from a Mac application, not Outlook. Hopefully Outlook reads from the system dictionary.


Open TextEdit for example. If you already added it to there and it doesn't show up in Outlook, then you should probably seek out an Outlook for Mac forum.
