Hi, I have upgraded to "New Teams". I'm writing in multiple languages in different chats. The "old" Version was automatically identifying the language and then do spelling check for this language as described in following article:

https://support.microsoft.com/en-au/office/check-your-spelling-in-multiple-languages-in-microsoft-teams-0e269374-0cac-4a22-a377-53f01e05a6d4

Unfortunately this feature does not work on the "new" teams. How can I get back this feature?

Thanks for the help. VersionYou have Microsoft Teams version 23306.3315.2560.6525.You've got the latest version. It was last updated on 12/7/2023. The client version is 49/23110231810.

    Hi all,

    Just to summarize:

    • Multilingual spellcheck does NOT currently work with the new Teams
    • As a workaround you can open a Teams session in a browser in parallel to your normal Teams session, and in the browser multilingual spellcheck works
    • If we are lucky then the rumours about the multilingual spellcheck getting rolled out gradually starting in April 2025 are true

    Hi Andreas, seems like there is something planned for April, that sounds like we get our feature back finally!

    Goes in the right direction. Let's see if an when it is really available. It took a lot of time and meanwhile I only believe what I see on my desktop.

    Hello Maureen,

    not all users can change these settings. In many cases they are locked by the system administrator.

    as a workaround for me it worked to word with the web version of Teams and use Teams in the web browser via office.com

    change the browser language to your designated language and activate spell checking, then it works
