Hello @kovidgoyal

I am trying to figure out how to do this with dictionaries.

First, the only dictionary references I came across in the wiki are the following, but don't seem to help with what I am trying to do...
https://manual.calibre-ebook.com/edi...ds-in-the-book
https://manual.calibre-ebook.com/vie...tionary-lookup

So then I have tried to right click and "Add this word to dictionary: Default" but I can't specify which dictionary to add it to. Ok, so I need to add another dictionary I suppose.

I go to ebook Editor>Edit>Preferences>Editor Settings>Manage spelling dictionaries


But I am not sure what to do next. I am looking for a way to copy an existing dictionary and rename it to, say, English-HarryPotter so then I can add all the fantasy words to that dictionary and then delete the dictionary when I am done. But I can't seem to find a way to copy a dictionary. So I guess what I am trying to do, and the way I think it works, is wrong

Do you, or anyone, have a bit of time to explain how to achieve my first post?

Thank you
