The best Easter Eggs in Word

You can also discover one or two surprises in Word - so-called Easter Eggs. Unfortunately there are fewer of them with every new version of Word, since they usually represent small security holes. We show you the three best and most extraordinary Eastereggs in Microsoft Word.

Easter Egg 3rd place - The Word Cursor 2.0

You can turn your mouse into a shamrock (similar to the Apple command key) with a small key combination. To do this, just press [Ctrl] + [Alt] together with [+] in Word.

Place 2 - The political word attitude

Word is also political. Enter the word "liberal" and then "conservative" in the "Research" function. You can find them in the "Check" menu. While only "positive" adjectives are suggested for "liberal", there are only "negative" associations like "old-fashioned and idiosyncratic" for "conservative" (see picture).

Top Easter Egg in Word: Create a dummy text

Write in a new Word document "= rand (200.99)" or "= lorem (200.90)" to get an (almost) endless text. Actually, this is not a real Easteregg at all. Rather, it can be used to check fonts because it contains every letter of the alphabet.
