Auto spelling

My red line keeps popping up under certain words trying to change the spelling to Spanish even though the spelling in english is correct. It only happens on certain websites.

Getting rid of the red squiggly lines (spelling) Hi. I am desperately trying to get rid of the red squiggly lines that suggest I can't spell. Everywhere! I have, of course, Googled time and time again. I have unchecked everything in System Preferences > Keyboard > Text In the "Spelling" dropdown I have chosen "Set Up.." and only chosen an asian language I don't use I have unchecked everything under Edit > Spelling and Grammar, in every single app Nevertheless those [insert comicbook swearing] squiggly lines pop up in various apps, including Safari and iMessage. I don't mind diving into the depths of the registry, just free me from those infernal squigglies once and for all. 😖

How can I report wrong things with the kanji for Japanese typing suggestions in OSX? When typing you get pop ups for the kanji for certain words. Typing TENKATOU てんかとう yields this abomination 転化等. Googling on it yields no result. It should be 転化糖 It is extremely irritating and counter-educative to have such things pops up. If the users more easily could report such problems things could be much easier, no? How and where can I contact the makers of this dictionary?

Greetings Hannahmarie21,

Thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities! It seems you're having an issue with websites wanting to auto-correct your input into Spanish.

Check to see if you have unwanted keyboards configured under System Preferences > Keyboard > Input Sources:

Type in another language on your Mac with input sources - Apple Support

Kind regards.
