Fastest way to enter a common misspelled word in AutoCorrect: 


When you notice that you just misspelled the last word...again...all you have to do is press the left arrow to place your cursor anywhere in the word and press Shift + F10 to open the right-click menu.  Bypass the suggested word at the top and arrow down to AutoCorrect, then arrow right and press Enter on the suggested spelling. 



Your word is automatically added to AutoCorrect.  And you did it without grabbing for that mouse! 


Note:  You will see the AutoCorrect menu item only when Word has a suggested spelling to offer.
