MS Word spelling problems?

[javasaurus]

About half-way through a document, the spelling dictionary goes wacky.

All of a sudden, it doesn't know words like "seed" and "oil" (though it did offer a spelling suggestion of "oil" with an umlaut over the i). If I type "seed" in the first half of the doc, it's fine. If I type it (carefully, no typos!) later in the doc, it gets a red squigly.

WTH?

Thanks! That worked. I pasted a couple of lines from a Turkish journal, and even though the text was in English, I guess it carried a foreign-language trigger with it.

That'd do it. I'm glad the fix worked!
