Whenever I edit some text, I might use a group of words (for the sake of argument, say "Hello Kitteh"), for which a word of the group (Kitteh) is obviously incorrect with the current dictionary, but it's correct in the context of the group itself "Hello Kitteh". If I add Kitteh to the dictionary, I will obviously allow Kitteh to roam free in my text, which I don't want. I really want to lean "Hello Kitteh" instead, and also give auto-correct suggestions based on this specific meaning, and not on the individual word. AFAIK, aspell/ispell cannot do that and hunspell's manual doesn't suggest anything beyond word-by-word support. Ideas?
