For testing purpose, i removed all other languages and just kept EN and Polish.

there is also an option in the same language settings called
Languages / Add or delete words
use it to add super similar words to the list.

HotCakeX I agree that's how it works.
But I am saying it is a problem if you are writing in one language which has words which are spelled similarly to another one which you also have set up in your preferred list. This means that Edge doesn't tell you that you have spelled the word e.g. in Polish by mistake (because e.g. it's your native language and you naturally spell like that) when you were writing in English.
