Yes it does, what is more you can have a seperate dictionary for each
program as well as a global one, just like you can have different
settings for programs.
To access it, use the JAWS key, usually insert, plud D. This will get
you the dictionary manager for whatever program you were in when you
invoked it. To get to the default or global dictionary, if the
dictionary manager is asking to create a new dictionary, just press
Escape, otherwise, the dictionary manager will load with the already
existing dictionary loaded, to get to the default of global dictionary
from here just press control+shift+D, just like in the settings manager.
After you added, edited, or removed some words, press control+S to save
the dictionary, then press Alt+F4 to exit, if you forget to save, the
dictionary manager will remind you when you try to exit.
Hope that helps.
Later...

does jaws 18 have a pronnounciation dictionary?
there are times when words are miss pronnounced or words that are all
uppercase and are spelled out.
or things like ctrl text on web pages and documents can say control
with the win eyes dictionary etc.
There's amazing intelligence in the Universe.
You can tell because none of them ever called Earth.
