How To Change Spell Check To Use Us English On Mac

Can’t remember how many times I’ve been bothered by the red dotted underlines telling me “favorite”, “customize” are spelled wrong… apparently the system is using British English to check the spell.

Here is how to change it the use to American English.

Go to System Preferences -> Keyboard -> Text, Change Spelling to U.S. English.

Originally from China and now living in Tokyo, I started this blog to practice English. Over the years, writing helped me find my own voice and explore thoughts about identity, life, and ordinary things that catch my curiosity. I mostly write for myself, but I love it when something here connects with someone else.
