As far as I can tell, the language of spell checking of the MS Editor spell checker is determined by the base language of the site, not the language of the browser or the language of the user profile. The exception is for pages that are a "translation" copy in Communication sites with the Multilingual Page Publishing feature active. The interface language of MS Editor depends on base language of the site, even for MLP pages.

Thanks for your reply.
If I understand you correct, if this is the case then all users that could edit that page would get the problem!? BUT in my case this only happens to 1 of 5 users with the right to edit.
- MartinLaplanteMar 14, 2022Iron ContributorI'm very curious to find out the pattern of those who are and aren't affected. Is it those who have the Microsoft Editor extension installed? Does it depend on whether the language is the first in the browser language list, or within the first 3? For us, those don't make a difference, but by poking around a bit in the JavaScript it looks like they get checked.
