MS Word underlines a word that is typed correctly.The underlined word's suggested correction is in another language. Sometimes in German, Spanish, Italian. How to stop? Anyone else had this issue?

    Thank you for your response. I always have my selection on English. This just happens every once in a while even though I have not changed any of the settings! Sometimes it changes it to German. Other times it's Spanish. Weird.
