What happened to the spellcheck feature on the new Teams??

I have notice that the spell check seems to be broken on the new Teams version. The incorrectly spelled word still gets underlined in red, and a suggestion list populates as it used to, but the suggestions are ridiculous. A perfect example is the word "definitely".

    It's just a basic word processing feature.
    Curious if we'll ever get an answer...

    Why doesn't MS use a common spell-check dictionary? You would think it would be easier to have one for all MS applications / Office and all. Or maybe they should just buy Grammerly like they often do with a competitive application that is superior.

    I am so glad I am not the only one experiencing this ****.

    If I type "teh" I would expect "the" to be an option, not "thp", "teem" and "tehri".

    Who and how did this get so screwed up?????

    I switched to the Canadian English and it is marginally better -- but still an embarrassment and quite a productivity drain for someone who relies on spell-checkers to help them.

    I have the same experience. Also glad to know it's not just me, but it needs fixin'! Should use the same spell check engine as office apps.
