If you tried to type a direct quote of the eye dialect from Jim, Word will probably translate it to make it sound like Jim graduated from Harvard.

If they would add the same logic to Outlook, my goal would be to draft a complaint letter to Microsoft where every word is underlined as offensive.

Similarly, if you call someone a "disabled person" in your writing, the software would prompt you to change the wording to "someone with a disability."

I just use the term “crippled.” Maybe that will confuse the system.
