You can have Keynote check spelling while you type and correct mistakes automatically. You can also have Keynote check grammar and add terms to the dictionary so they’re not marked as misspellings.
If you want to check spelling in a different language, first change the language of the dictionary.
Do one of the following:
Press Command-Semicolon (;) on the keyboard to show the first misspelled word. Press it again to see the next misspelling, and so on.
Choose Edit > Spelling and Grammar > Check Grammar With Spelling (a checkmark indicates it’s on), then choose Check Document Now. The first spelling error is highlighted, and grammar errors are underlined in green.
To see suggested spellings or grammar corrections for a word, Control-click it, then click the correction you want to use.
To ignore a misspelling, Control-click the word, then choose Ignore Spelling.
The word is ignored if it occurs again in the presentation (and is highlighted in other presentations). If you later want to remove it from the Ignored Words list, choose Keynote > Settings > Auto-Correction (from the Keynote menu at the top of your screen), then click the Ignored Words button and remove the word.
To show the next error, press Command-Semicolon.
When your spelling is checked automatically, misspelled words are underlined in red, and suggested corrections are shown in blue under the word. If you don’t see autocorrect suggestions, make sure autocorrection is turned on.
Choose Keynote > Settings (from the Keynote menu at the top of your screen).
Click Auto-Correction at the top of the settings window, then select or deselect “Correct spelling automatically.”
With autocorrection on, do any of the following:
Accept suggestions: If there’s only one suggested correction, just keep typing to have the word changed to the suggestion. If two or more suggestions are shown, choose one.
Ignore suggestions: Press the Esc (Escape) key, then continue typing.
Undo autocorrections: An automatically corrected word is briefly underlined in blue. To revert to your original spelling, put the insertion point after the word to show your original spelling, then choose your spelling. You can also Control-click the word to show your spelling, then choose it.
Add a word: Control-click the word in your presentation, then choose Learn Spelling in the shortcut menu. The word is added to the macOS dictionary used by Keynote and other apps.
Remove a word: Control-click the word in your presentation, then choose Unlearn Spelling in the shortcut menu. The word is removed from the macOS dictionary used by Keynote and other apps.
Designate words to ignore in Keynote: Choose Keynote > Settings (from the Keynote menu at the top of your screen). Click Auto-Correction at the top of the settings window, then click the Ignored Words button in the Spelling section. Click 
, then type the word you want the spell checker to ignore. Click OK when you’re done.
Note: If you add a word to the spelling dictionary, it’s added for all languages.
