Undo Learn Spelling in Pages

I hit learn spelling by mistake so now if the word in question is misspelled, Pages won't detect it. How do I undo this?

Mac mini 2018 or later

Type the incorrect spelling in a Pages document then double-click it to select the misspelled word. Now, right-click on the word & choose "Unlearn Spelling" from the contextual menu that appears.

HI Barry,


Thanks for getting back to me on this one.


I've tried that, and it works for other words I've added to my dictionary, - But it doesn't work on this one word I accidentally added. I haven't got a clue why, but I've come up with a workaround for it, setting up the incorrectly learned word as always changing to what it SHOULD be as a text shortcut.


I don't know why it doesn't work for this one word... it's mystery, but my workaround seems to be hitting the mark for now.
