There is a simpler way for a section of text.  Highlight the 
text...click on the language notation at the bottom center of the 
page...hover over 'set language for paragraph'...click on 'more...' 
...select language in drop down box.  All language selections that 
have dictionaries are noted with a check mark and 'abc'.
