On the U.S. English keyboard the shortcut is Command- Colon, but I think you can find the menu option in general by going to the Edit menu on the menu bar and finding the submenu for "Spelling and Grammar". I was in the middle of composing a reply to Donna about general language issues for the Mac, so this helps!
