Hello, Sakari,

  Yes it is possible. However I am not 100% sure that in the stable
abiword it worked exactly like the way I'm going to describe how I
tested:


   First line:   Olá
   It got a red squiggle underneath because the language is english

   Third line: Hello
   No red squiggle.

   Select first line, Menu Tools -> Set Language -> Portuguese
   Red Squiggle disappeared.

   Judging on how it works, maybe Set Language should belong to the
Format menu?
