Default Why does the thesaurus not work in a specific paragraph?

In my word document there is one specific paragraph where if i try and use
the thesaurus, it just wont come up or give any suggestions if i right click
on the word. but if i type the word in another paragraph it works fine. Is
this a formatting problem since the paragraph may have been copied and pasted
from a different document.

Very likely the specific paragraph is formatted as a different language or
(more likely) "(no proofing)" or "Do not check spelling or grammar." See
Tools | Language | Set Language to correct this.
