[Aspell-user] considering word in master dictionary misspelled? |

The word "wold" (wolds, wold's) is in the Aspell master English
dictionary (aspell -d en dump master | aspell expand | grep wold).
I would like to consider this word as a misspelling, i.e., as if it were
not in the master dictionary, so that
echo wold | aspell list
would output "wold" instead of being silent. (In my world, "wold"
is always a misspelling of "would", not the Old English word for a wood.)
Short of dumping all the words, removing the wold variants, and making a
new custom dictionary, is it possible? For example, is there some way
in a personal dictionary, or some other file, to "override" (excise,
remove) an existing master dictionary entry?
I looked in the manual and did various searches to no avail. One person
with essentially the same question did end up making a new dictionary:

Any info appreciated. --thanks, karl.
