Hi Terry,
Your suggestion re coding of the pages is valid. I looked
at some of the free material on the pages, and none of it
have any language switching codes. There's a small snippet
of the HTML code below my signature.

Hello there,
If the HTML on the web page is not properly tagged for
languages, JAWS will not respond.
One way round the problem might be to:
1 install prooffing tools and appropriate dictionaries to
Word.
2 Set word to detect languages automatically.
3. copy and paste contents of web page into word document.
Better still:
write to site owner asking them to re-tab the pages with
span language tags where appropriate.
Hope this helps.
come back to me off list for detailed instructions.

Hi all,
I am trying to learn Spanish from a website called
studyspanish.com. I have my JAWS verbosity settings set to
"language detection, on", but JAWS is not picking up when
the text changes from one language to he other. I vaguely
remember that there is a way of switching between languages
on the fly, without having to go back into the JAWS options
menu every time, but can't for the life of me think where to
find it. Can anyone help?
Muchas gracias,
Maggie
