Question

Pamela finds that she is constantly spelling the word “color” as “colour” when she is typing. Even though this is how the word is spelled in some English-speaking countries, Pamela needs to write papers that match American spelling standards.
Which button could Pamela press in the Microsoft Word spell checker to make the word “colour” instantly change to “color” whenever she types it in each new document?

Answer 1

Answer:

From the review select, language, and then change language settings, and select the default language as US English. You need to do nothing else.

Another method is as below:

From File menu, select the "options", and then the language, and install the language if the languages not installed in the proofing section. Once, it shows installed, it means the language has been installed. And then you can change the default language by clicking on "Set the office language preference". Select the American English as default language. You will find that the "colour" is changed to "color" instantly.
