Phenomenon

The lang attribute on a contenteditable region does not affect the spellcheck language in Safari. Spellcheck always uses the browser’s default language, regardless of the lang attribute value.

Reproduction example

  1. Create a contenteditable div with lang="fr" and spellcheck="true".
  2. Type French text.
  3. Observe whether spellcheck uses French dictionary.

Observed behavior

  • In Safari on macOS, the lang attribute does not affect spellcheck.
  • Spellcheck always uses the browser’s default language.
  • Multi-language content cannot be properly spellchecked.

Expected behavior

  • The lang attribute should control the spellcheck language.
  • Spellcheck should use the appropriate dictionary for the specified language.
  • Multi-language content should be properly supported.
