User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:58.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/58.0
Build ID: 20180206200532
Steps to reproduce:
I typed "hadiths" within the browser and right clicked on it.
Actual results:
The spell check function recommended "jihadists" as a correction.
This is, perhaps needless to say, both unhelpful and potentially offensive. Hadith and jihad are both Arabic words closely related to Islam. Hadith is the more important term to the religion, being the name for the most important texts after the Koran, even if it is not as well used in English vernacular.
Expected results:
Recognize the word "hadith" and "hadiths"
