Create a character style defined as "Do not check spelling or grammar" and
apply it to those words. See

If the specific words in question are few, you might want to save them as
AutoCorrect or AutoText entries after applying the "Do not check"
formatting. A caveat in that case would be that, after such an entry is
inserted, the setting at the insertion point might still be "Do not check,"
so you'd need to be careful to press Ctrl+Spacebar to reset the language
formatting before typing further.
