The Language setting allows you to choose what language the word processor works in. This has importance when you are using things like the spelling checker. For example, while English is spoken in different countries, spellings can differ. "Colour" is used in Ireland and Britain, while "Color" is used in America. Other differences include the use of "s" and "z" like in "recognise" and "recognize". Double or single letters in the middle of words is another difference as in "Traveller" and "Traveler". So having the correct language set in Word, can make a difference. If your spelling checker is working off one language and you use another in your way of spelling, you may have things flagged as errors when they aren't.
