reject Examples

Note that regular expressions are generally case-sensitive. You can use (?:(?i)...) to make a line case-insensitive (currently all lines are treated together, so if you don't scope your item, it will carry through to the remaining lines, which is could be unexpected -- this is likely to change in the near future).

See Archaic-words

^attache$
benefitting
occurence
Sorce
^[Ss]pae
^untill
vender
^wether

Note: the patterns are perl regular expressions. Here these patterns are quite broad.

  • ^attache$ matches a single (French) word (attache) which can be a typo for English words (attach, attached/attaches)
  • benefitting would match a substring, but the default dictionary has no other matching words, the current accepted English spelling is benefiting
  • ^[Ss]pae matches a number of things include spaetzle (which is a word, but, the odds are you won't be using it), most of them will be typos of words in the space family.
  • ^untill will match some farming terms, but again, it's unlikely you're using them (if you are, add a $ to the line to just match until).
  • vender is archaic (formerly used by the New Yorker) https://english.stackexchange.com/questions/28201/vendor-vs-vender-in-standard-american-english -- note that the New Yorker appears to have abandoned this spelling as well see https://www.newyorker.com/video/watch/the-fruit-vendor
  • ^wether matches a number of terms, the main one is a typo for whether, if you need wetherhog or similar, adjust the pattern.
