How to Turn Off the Foreign Spelling Grammar Check in Microsoft Office


1. Open Microsoft Office Word. Select "Tools" from the menu bar, and select "Languages" from the drop-down menu. The foreign language that is currently being used to check spelling and grammar used in Word will be highlight. Scroll to the top of the prompt, and highlight “no proofing” (or choose another foreign language), which should be located at the top of the list. Select "Default" at the bottom of the prompt to turn off foreign spelling and grammar checking in any new Word documents. Click "Yes" at the subsequent prompt to save these new settings.
2. Open Microsoft Office PowerPoint, and follow the same steps. Select "Tools" from the menu bar and then "Languages." Highlight “no proofing” instead of the selected foreign language (or change to another language if you would like). Select "Default" at the bottom, and click "Yes" at the subsequent prompt.
3. Open Microsoft Entourage. Choose "Tools" from the menu bar. Select "Change Dictionary." Notice dictionary options based on the language settings of your computer. Choose between English (US), English (UK) and English (AU). These are the only “foreign” language options in Entourage.
