Hello there, @Bellagamba.
Allow me to share some information on how spell-checker on QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT) for Mac.
By default, spelling is checked automatically no matter which language you're using on your Mac. With that being said, the option to turn it on is currently unavailable.
With this, I'd recommend reinstalling QBDT for Mac. This will fix any issues with the software and restore the spell checker to its normal functioning.
