How to disable spell check in english in KDE Arch

Hello,

So, i want to keep the system's language in english, but i write in other language, and the spell check annoys me, because it underlines every word i write in other language in all my apps.

I've changed my locale.gen and locale.conf to the other language, but it still corrects to english... How can i disable it? I use KDE Arch

Thanks

Systemsettings -> Regional Settings -> Spellchecking allows you to independently configure this, and disable it FWIW for KDE and possibly Qt apps, it's likely you have to do some more for other toolkits/programs

I've already changed it to my language, but, yeah, everything i installed with aur or pacman are still correcting to english. In that case, the only way is to change it in the program?

Depends, likely yes, which programs are you talking about? See https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Language_checking as well.

Notion, for example, annoys me a lot.
Also Skype, Microsoft Teams, ONLYOFFICE, among others
