How to Forbid Words

Making Words Forbidden

There are several ways to mark a word as forbidden:

In a custom word list with words beginning with !.
```
!forbiddenWord
companyname
jQuery
projectname
```
forbiddenWord will always be marked as misspelled. While companyname will be considered correct.

In words section of cspell configuration:

"words": [
    "!forbiddenWord",
    "configstore"
],

In flagWords section of cspell configuration:
```
"flagWords": ["forbiddenWord"]
```

Overriding Forbidden words

Sometimes it is necessary to allow a word even if it is forbidden.

In a comment

/**
 * Do not mark `forbiddenWord` as incorrect.
 * cspell:ignore forbiddenWord
 */

In the `cspell` configuration

{
  "ignoreWords": ["forbiddenWord"]
}
