Android claims that I have mispelled something in XML

Question

I need to use various words but it seems that Android plays nanny and says that they are misspelled in XML.

<string name="oiseau">oiseau</string>

How do I override this function? TIA.

It sounds like the eclipse spell checker, not android. Is it complaining and not compiling/deploying your project, or just showing the squiggly lines under the word? To turn off spell checking in eclipse go to:

Window->preferences->general->editors->text editors->spelling and you can disable this. Or add the words to a dictionary you define.
