How do I change my spellcheck to English?

[rigmarole]

I wonder if it’s related to this open Electron bug:

No spellcheck suggestion for one language when using multiple languages

Steps to reproduce Create a new vault, activate both ‘English’ and ‘German’ in the editor settings as spellcheck languages. Create a file and insert this text: Deis ist ain Baispiel führ einen Sats.

Jelmerro replied in the up-stream Electron bug:

It seems to not be so much related to multiple languages, as that does work if you only add languages without a dash in them, for example nl, de works on the Windows machine here and suggests words in both languages, while en-GB, en-US doesn’t suggest anything.

So I guess your language is “en-gb” with a dash. So that might explain the issue. (I didn’t read the entire thread.)
