Spell check in multiple languages
It would be nice if it was possible to have the Teams desktop app in one languge and spell checking in multiple languge and at the same time customize date and time format.
E.g. I would like to have Teams in English, have spell checking in English and Danish, and have date and time format in "Danish".

It's f-ing 2020 and a simple feature like that is not implemented by a multi billion dollar software company for years. Sorry..but that is just ridiculous.

Hello Alex, do you have any plan or estimate when Multi-language spell check will be available?
Like in other application (i.e. Skype for Business) Multi-lingual spelling are working smoothly on Mac OS
International customers, especially in Europe are faced at least with 2-3 different languages.
Currently spelling works only on the Team App language (i.e. English), but if I type on different language (French or German) it does not propose the correct spelling.
Adding this feature will make teams more professional.
Thanks -

Microsoft has always had the best spell check and internationalization in their products, including mobile phones.
Please, support multiple languages spell check.

I agree with both Christian and Annemieke. I am English but I work in both the UK and France, in French and English. I need spell check to work in both languages but independently to the date and time

I read the 'multi-language spell check is on the backlog', but I'd like to point out that's not the whole of what Christian was asking - and I'd like to second that.
I'd like to be able to have an English spell check, but I DON'T want that to also dictate my date and time format. I don't see why those should be linked at all. -

Please fix this issue, we use teams in English and Spanish and we need the spell checker on all languages.
Thank you. -

Please fix this issue. It's been a feature in Outlook for years to identify the language I'm typing in (English, Swedish etc.) so why not in the Teams app?

It's very annoying to have the red underline, and no option to disable them. Is it really hard for the Microsoft development team to add this feature?

I use Teams in English and write a lot in both English and Danish. When writing in English everything is okay, but when writing in Danish it is EXTREMELY frustrating to have the red underline. The red underline makes it harder to spot any typos and errors. It would almost be better to have no spell check at all (and thus no red underline)

I'd like a priority on this topic too. I write in 4 different languages daily and multiple spellchecker would be very beneficial to me and my colleagues globally. Will this Vote be merged with this similar Vote ? https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/forums/555103-public/suggestions/18472327-proofing-tools-spell-check-theasaurus-autocorre (which has been on hold for 1 year because the developer left :-D)
