So I've been writing my WIP in OO Writer, and in English. But many times, the language as indicated in the bottom center field has set itself to German, with is the language the creator had originally saved the template in. I don't remember how I fixed this problem the last time.
This just happened again, after weeks of writing with "English (usa)" in the grey field. Now suddenly it's German again, and selecting text, even the empty space ahead of what's been typed, and marking it as "English" and setting the default language to English, does not help. No matter whether it's for the whole document, selection, or paragraph, as soon as I continue to type, it will go back to German and hence not perform any spell check. It's also extremely bothersome and distracting to have the imperfection of a lie, "German", staring me in the face while I'm trying to work and have to correct this untruth after every word as so much as a space resets the language to untruth. How do I set the software to stop ever changing any languages in my document? I have gone into the language settings, but everything is on English (usa). I have to continue right now but I can't because it says "German" when I'm typing in English, and I can't eat a chicken when the packaging says turkey.
