+# MSC3225: Per Room Spellcheck Language
+
+It is common for people on the Internet to talk in more than one language. English will probably be
+the most used one, but for many it is not their mother tongue and they will use the latter as well.
+
+Clients can offer spell checking functionality, but in order to provide helpful suggestions they need
+to know which language the user is currently writing in. When spell checking is available, the language
+can usually be selected e.g. via the right click menu, but it becomes tedious when one switches back and
+forth between two or more of them.
+
+This proposal aims at providing users with a way to set a language per room, so that switching between
+conversations held in different languages automatically switches to the appropriate dictionary.
+
+
+## Proposal
+
+Clients offering spell checking should default their dictionary to the system language. They should offer
+a way to change it and when the user sets a specific language, then they should store the language code
+as `m.input_language` account data for the room where it was set. Language codes must be
+[RFC3066](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc3066) compliant.
+
+
+## Alternatives
+
+The language could be defined as a room property: a room administrator could set it once and then every
+member would get it for free. However, not everyone in a given room necessarily talks in the same language
+(or even language variant, e.g. en_US vs en_GB) and there would need to be a way for users to override the
+room property. This MSC could be used as a mechanism to do said override, if such a room property were ever
+defined. Adding a room property requires more work and thought, and can be done in another MSC. It is thus
+considered out of scope for this one.
+
+The feature can also work without actually adding it to the Matrix specification. There is indeed already
+one existing implementation (see [Unstable prefix](#unstable-prefix) below). Standardising the account data
+type though has the benefit that it is not client specific anymore, and the setting can be more easily reused
+by any number of clients.
+
+
+## Unstable prefix
+
+Fractal already successfully offers this proposed feature. It stores the language code under the
+`org.gnome.fractal.language` account data type. This was released on the stable channel as part of
+Fractal 4.4 on August 7th 2020.
