How do I remove a word from the Textedit spell check dictionary?

I accidentally told Textedit to 'learn' a word that was misspelled. How do I remove it?

MacBook Air 13", macOS 10.15

That doesn't work for me for some reason. When I right click, the menu that pops up has 'Look Up', 'Search', 'Cut/Copy/Paste', 'Share' and a number of other things, like 'Font' and 'Transformations', but not 'Unlearn'. I have a macbook Air, and a trackpad, not a mouse, but I can right click with the trackpad.

Is there any other way to do it? I tried searching in the textedit 'help' for 'unlearn' but it came up with 'No Results Found'...

I have the MacOS Catalina 10.15.4
