Multiple language spell checking is not working in Microsoft Teams

Spell checking in multiple languages is not working in Microsoft Teams as described here:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/check-your-spelling-in-multiple-languages-in-microsoft-teams-0e269374-0cac-4a22-a377-53f01e05a6d4

It has happened after the installing new Teams desktop app on my Windows 11 (details below). Setting in Teams -> Settings -> General -> Enable spell check (requires restarting Teams) is enabled and Teams was restarted.

Unfortunately clearing following directories did not solve the issue:

%temp%,

%appdata%\Microsoft\Teams

%localappdata%\SquirrelTemp,

My Teams version is:
You have Microsoft Teams version 23257.2620.2442.7817.

You've got the latest version. It was last updated on 10/17/2023.

The client version is 49/23092912307.

Hello Umar.

This is actually a Known issue for the New Teams : Language-aware spell checking is currently not available in the new Teams. The team is focusing on this issue with a high priority.

    Hello, what does high priority means? It's been 11 months and this is not available yet.

    Exactly if I would release a NEW version of a software in m company that is at least in some aspects so much worse then the old version, I would get ask to bring the of functionality back within days and not with years as it seems to be the case at Microsoft. Because nearly a year later the NEW teams experience has not changed is reduced functionality on this issue anyhow!
