The default language for Word is that set in Windows regional settings.
Word will only spell check using the language defined for the text - see
tools language set language (set to UK English or whatever) and uncheck
the box 'Detect language automatically'.

I type say 'color' by mistake that it will not accept it as a correct
word. It should give me 'colour' as the correct spelling.
