I have already had to add words to the dictionary using the spell-checker but would like to go in to the dictionary and pre-add a lot of words I know I will use. I am using the Australian Dictionary. Can I edit it?

You can't edit the Aus. dictionary, but you can edit the personal dictionary, to which you've already made additions:
