I am happy to share that ‘Auto spell-check’ feature has been shipped in the latest version of Illustrator. Here is how to enable/disable it in the latest release : https://helpx.adobe.com/in/illustrator/using/whats-new/2020.html#spellcheck

This is a vital feature - present in texting and many other apps at the OS level on any mobile device, all MS products, system-wide in Mac OS applications and SOME Adobe apps including InDesign, but NOT Illustrator.
PLEASE bring this feature - it is very easy to make mistakes that can be quite costly on simple words that are easily missed by designers and proofreaders along the way.
Illustrator user since v. 3 - this is not a "fluffy" request but one that addresses the real business needs of your core user base. Did I say "PLEASE??"
A temporary workaround:
1) Clone the object and paste in front
2) Apply a stroke with a fill of "none" and set the stroke to "inside" the path in the stroke palette. Adjust stroke width as needed to visually "inset" to your desired appearance
3) From the menu, release this newly-created compound path
4) From the menu, Expand Appearance of this object. You should now have a new object with a "thinner" appearance that mirrors what "offset path" with a negative value would normally do
