Firefox either thinks I am Italian, or that it is in Italy. Whenever I fill out a form in English it wants to correct it to Italalian. If I right click on a word underlined in red it offers the Italian dictionary and no others.
how do I correct Firefox to use the English dictionary and not as at present - the Italian? I have never consciously set the language as Italian, But as I am typing this every word is underlined in red by Firefox, and when I right click it wants to offer Italian words.
