Multiple languages in Outlook for Mac

Hello,   I am wondering if Outlook for Mac supports auto correct in multiple languages (at once).   For example, for a user sending an email that contains English, French and German.     ...

spg808 Have you also added the various languages in the System Preferences on the Mac?

      I believe this is browser specific, so it will depend which one you use.

      For Chrome  - Load chrome://settings/languages in the Chrome web browser. This opens the languages configuration menu. Click on the add button and add one or multiple languages to the browser. Make sure that "use this language for spell checking" is enabled for all of them.

        Thanks for this. I am using Chrome and my set up is with 3 languages for quite a bit. I have changed the setting from basic to enhanced spell check but this does not do it either.

        Cheers,

        Vincent
