Currently Vim provides no "native" mechanism to do this, although I think it is a good idea. The only thing I can think of is an :autocmd that calls a function that searches for a special section in the file and then moves the cursor over the words in that section and triggers zG with :normal commands. This would be messy and I would be reluctant to bother with it.
Edit: Of course, somehow I overlooked the existence of :spellgood!, even though it is in your question. This makes the job much more feasible. I came up with a basic implementation which you can tweak to fit your needs:
function! AutoSpellGoodWords()
let l:goodwords_start = search('\C-\*-SpellGoodWordsStart-\*-', 'wcn')
let l:goodwords_end = search('\C-\*-SpellGoodWordsEnd-\*-', 'wcn')
if l:goodwords_start == 0 || l:goodwords_end == 0
return
endif
let l:lines = getline(l:goodwords_start + 1, l:goodwords_end - 1)
let l:words = []
call map(l:lines, "extend(l:words, split(v:val, '\\W\\+'))")
for l:word in l:words
silent execute ':spellgood! ' . l:word
endfor
endfunction
autocmd BufReadPost * call AutoSpellGoodWords()
This will search for a block that looks something like this:
-*-SpellGoodWordsStart-*-
word1 word2 word3
word4 word5 ...
-*-SpellGoodWordsEnd-*-
And each word it finds--in this case, word1, word2, word3, word4, and word5--within the block it will add to the temporary good words list.
Just be aware that I have not stress-tested this.

You can use abbreviations in your
~/.vimrcfile for just a couple of words:These will auto-complete after pressing Space or Enter. So if you typed
quethen pressed Space or Enter it would finish the word "question" for you.If you are adding a lot and want this interface:
You can use dictionaries. Simply set up a file with a word on each line, then in your .vimrc add a line like this:
Replace the path with your dictionary file's location. You can then use Ctrl + x and Ctrl + k to bring up the suggestions. Ctrl + n and Ctrl + p to select the next/previous out of multiple selections.
