      I'm curious if google crawls this page, and starts adding words that we find missing...

      Would be extremely interesting to know.

        LOL, I'm confident that that is a "no".

          In Chrome's defence, I'd forgotten to tick the "Use this language for spell checking" in the Languages settings... after having an alternative to the default language installed for, well, ever sigh

            Firefox has amongst, thankfully.

            Most of the time "among" is used in American dictionaries and "amongst" in British dictionaries, though some allow both, depending on the software you can end up with either depending on your region/language settings.

              Should still be in both dictionaries! It's a standard and accepted word in both.

                      Scalable isn't in my Serbian (duh), Russian (duh), UK English, or French dictionaries I have selected for Chrome. I use that word all the time, but I've never added it to the dictionary.

                          My French dictionary for Chrome has this, but spelling with French transliteration "ziggourat"

                            I just noticed at least the UK English dictionary for Chrome has "t*tties"
