Currently, the spell checker defaults to the system's language on Linux. In my case this is German. However, I mostly communicate in English on Talk and the spell checker constantly shows the red underline below each word because it doesn't understand English.
Describe the solution you'd like
Let users configure languages used for spell checking.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Change my system's language. This won't fix the issue as I'm communication both in German and English regularly in Talk.

Here is a hack I'm currently using that works:

I think there should be also a easy way to switch the language. On the browser I can right-click into the input field and select one or multiple languages. This is really helpful if you switch regular between languages. As the desktop app also uses some kind of an "embedded browser" I wonder if there is a way to expose this language switcher?
Maybe I'm special in this regard but both my operating system and Nextcloud are set to English but I also have chats regularly in German. So a easy way to switch the spell checker would be really helpful, or set it to check for both languages by default.
