I guess it would be a good idea to check the paragraph style(s) you're 
using: if the language property for the style is not properly set, then 
no wonder spellchecking doesn't work as expected. It might be that the 
default styles are uncorrectly set wtr.

In order to check the style(s) :
0. Ensure the Stylist is opened (F11)
1. Put the cursor in a paragraph which style you want to check
2. In the Stylist window, the corresponding (paragraph) style is 
selected. Right click and select Modify
3. Go to the Font thumbnail and check the Language drop-down list.

I'd advise to first have a look at the Default style, because it is the 
parent of all other ones (you'll see that if you select the Hierarchy 
mode in the Stylist bottom drop-down). Hence, changing the Language 
property of Default would apply to all its heirs at once.
