Could you use Custom Data Validation?

select the whole sheet then Data Validation|Allow: Custom and in the
Formula: box...

=NOT(COUNTIF(A1,"* *"))

If your words/phrases are in a single column, you could use a formula to clean
up any mistakes:

If the words are in column A, you could insert a new column B and put this in
B1:

=trim(a1)
Then drag down as far as you need.

Then select column B
Edit|copy

Select column A
edit|paste special|values

And delete column B
