      Easy first ones: virtualization and virtualize

      These both seem to be words I use a lot... and Chrome throws a fit every time. I've added them both to dictionary now.

        I'll pay more attention from now on to the exacts, thanks to this thread. The biggest one for me is always "remoted".

        That one, at least, is a less common and new word. No one said "remoted" in, say, the 1970s. But yes, it is missing and I just added it too.

              It has inefficiencies but lacks efficiencies. What the crap, Google?

                I've always suspected that they were lacking certain efficiencies.

                ...
                lol at their expense.

                    I don't blame Google for not having this one but it needs to be added: performant

                        And Google lacks the proper plural spelling of formula: formulæ

                          I think that Google skips ALL proper ash tree use spellings and only, sometimes, uses the expanded ae double characters instead 😞

                                That is a seriously old word... I mean electrical engineering has been using it since the early 1900's not to mention the uses for it prior to that. Odd that the Chrome dictionary doesn't have it.

                                I find it annoying when the English spelling is right and the American spelling isn't.

                                  It seems to be my wont in life to be forever using archaic word forms.

                                    Hypervisor and the plural hypervisors.

                                      How about miscommunicating.

                                        Should you send your list to Google?

                                          One would assume that Chrome would send back all local additions to the spell check list and eventually Google algorithms would update all users after a threshold of some type.

                                            @JaredBusch Hopefully they do that, but it seems that if they were doing that they would have a lot more common words all ready.
