2. Scroll to the “Language” section.
3. Select “Check my spelling as I type” if you want to turn spell checker on. Uncheck it if you wish to have it off. 

 

Brave:

1. Select the “Menu” button (3 horizontal bars) located at the upper-right corner of the screen, then choose “Settings“.
2. Scroll to the “Additional settings" and expand.
3. Scroll down to Languages and left click
4. Slide Spell Check switch on left (ON).

Fortunately, I've never needed a spell-checker.  Grammar and spelling errors jump out at me, so I edit my work before hitting "send".  I guess you might say I was blessed (or cursed?) with an "editor's eye."

Grammar and spell checkers are increasingly more configurable (language, vendor) either in browsers or keyboards via plugins or apps.

Still even with spelling and grammar correct, I have been known to send the wrong message.
