    If a question contains a word that I don't understand, it is often a reason for me to become interested in the question. I would look for that word with Google or some online reference. After this, I would decide to answer the question or not.

    However, if the question contains some poor spelling, I could just ignore it.

    Yep www.m-w.com if it is definitely an English word.

    If it is slang www.urbandictionary.com

    I haven't yet, but I would. I think empowering yourself and actually bothering to look something up is a great way to learn.
