How do I get a word out of the default dictionary without reinsta.

I want to remove a word from MS Word's default dictionary. Is this possible.
The dictionary used to flag the "word" thru a misspelled. Now it's not. I
don't understand why. I have no custom dictionaries.

It is not possible to remove words from the default dictionary - only from
the user dictionary. Are you sure you have no custom dictionaries installed?
Tools > options > spelling and grammar.

You can add words to an exclude dictionary - see Word help under "Specify a
preferred spelling for a word"
