Clicking ignore works, as well as Add word to dictionary. These options aren't always the best, although I have been fixing the word outside spell check and then refreshing. Not my favorite way either.
@MerlinMama - until 1.44 spellchecker treated the parts as separate words.

See these threads for related discussion - ==>> Suggestion: Spell Check Tool Enhancement and from post#28 in Doesn't save changes
