A 2011 iMac cannot update beyond High Sierra.


Your options are either an older version of word that can work on it. Office 2016 for example, our a third party alternative.


I will second Niel's suggestion of LibreOffice. Its a pretty good suite for most uses and supports office formats fine and it's free.
