How do I stop auto-adding words to my user dictionary ?

I seem to be adding words unintentionally to my user dictionary and I have to go delete them when I see they're showing up, and I don't know how I'm doing it, and I don't see a way in the preferences to turn it off.

Hi, Sorry this is happening. On Mac, Paraspeech can learn words from corrections you make after dictation. The current release doesn't have an off switch. I've added one, but it hasn't been released yet. Best, Alex

Please release this ASAP. ON the verge of finding another solution. And as you describe it, I'm not sure that's the root of the problem, because I don't make corrections afterwards to gibberish and it is taking common words and making them gibberish in the dictionary
