- Users are warned of problems when they enter teams

Making Embarassing Spelling Mistakes in crucial work interviews or Microsoft team calls could soon be a saga past thanks to a new update.
The video conference service has announced that it is rolling out “improved spell check”, giving users the tools to make sure their messages are as accurate as possible.
Microsoft says the addition, “will help make sure your messages are clear and professional” – something I’m sure we’ve all worried about in the past.
Microsoft Teams Spell Check
In a Microsoft 365 update of blog post, the company outlined how the feature will work and see any problems in the teams compose box and mark or highlight the problem immensely.
Users will then be able to select a correction from a dropdown menu, ignore the proposal, or add a word to their dictionary.
The new spell checking function will also offer multilinguals, support, with users capable of switching between up to three languages. It is not mentioned exactly which languages are supported at the launch, but hopefully we will get more information about this soon.
The feature is listed as a rolling now and is generally available to all users on Windows Desktop and Mac devices across all platforms.
The launch is the latest in a number of recent improvements to Microsoft teams that the company announced as it seems to make the platform more intuitive.
This includes the recent launch of real -time text (RTT) features, allowing participants to write a message while someone else’s speech is transcribed, giving users who prefer to write to speak another way to make sure their voices come out there.
