The longest journey starts with byt a  single step.

If you wait for someone else to create your custom dictionary, you will
never have it.

No one else will create the custom dictionary for you.

While Martin's answer is correct, the custom dictionary feature is meant 
to be used for short personal wordlists, like the names of people or 
places you type often. If you want to build a dictionary for a language, 
you will want to build a language extension. The starting point is a 
pair of .dic/.aff files in Hunspell format; if you don't know how to 
generate them, you can refer to the Hunspell documentation.

The benefits of creating a Hunspell dictionary are:
- You only need to add the base word: for example, in English you add 
"visit" and automatically you get "visits", "visited", "visiting"...
- The generated dictionary can be used in many open-source programs, 
such as Firefox and Thunderbird.

Creating Hunspell dictionaries goes beyond the purpose of this mailing 
list, but if you can't find more information just ask here.

Regards,
   Andrea.

No need to wait for a reply.  Just create an empty tamazight.dic file 
and whenever a word comes up
with a squirrel underline add it to the dictionary from the menu.
