** Check foreign-language spelling **

Word is not bilingual, but you can train it to process more than one language at a time. Ordinarily, when you are working on a document that includes text in, say, French, Word likely will not recognize the other language if you have set your primary language to English; in this case, Word will add wiggly lines under the assorted foreign words, suggesting that they are all misspellings.

You can avoid that situation by setting Word to check the French text using a French word list.

To arrange this, select the text in French (Or whatever foreign language you are using). Click the Review tab on the Ribbon toolbar. Then click Language and choose :- Set Language in the Proofing group of buttons. The Language dialog box will appear.

Here you should click the language to use for the selected text; the listed languages displaying tick/checkmark icons are available for use in checking spelling. Click OK to finish.
