How to set the default spell check language?

Every time I open a document I have to change the language of the spell check back to English. I changed the language to Spanish a long time ago when I was writing an essay in Spanish, but now it is always Spanish, in any LibreOffice program. It is a pain to keep doing this, and I don’t know how to change it back permanently.

You then need to do ‘reset to default language’ in the popup menu at the bottom, to change the language for an existing document.

that does nothing, the default is still the one you selected while in the first setup
