Your added words go into a "sup.wp" (sup for supplementary, I guess) file.
Sup.wp goes into the SPELL: (?) directory by default, although you can
configure WP to put it in any directory you want.  (I put the spelling
dictionary "lex.wp" on the WP disk & configured the program to look for
both lex.wp and sup.wp on that disk.)

This stuff is in the manual, by the by.  Look under "Configuration."

Hope this helps,
