For. languages and Word on a Mac--do they jive?

I'm a college student majoring in Romance languages, and I would love to get spellcheck and grammar check for these languages for Word. Is it possible? From what I can tell, I might have to "go Windows" (shudder) just for this one little (but for me, big) funcionality. Any advice?

For Office v. X Enabling European Language Features

European language support is available when one or more keyboard layouts for supported European languages is enabled on the Keyboard Menu tab on the International pane in System Preferences (Apple menu, System Preferences command). To switch between languages, users can select the appropriate keyboard layout. For more information about setting a keyboard layout, see Mac Help.

European language features in the English version of Office v.X can also be enabled by installing Officev.X on a version of the MacOS for a supported language.

Installing International Proofing Tools

Proofing tools for the supported languages can be installed by using the Value Pack Installer application on the Microsoft Office v.X CD-ROM. For more information about installing Value Pack components, see the Guide to the Value Pack in the Value Pack folder on the Officev.X CD-ROM.
