Word 2007, find this setting at Review | Proofing | Set Language. Choose
English (U.K) and then click Default...

In that case, click the arrow at the bottom of the Styles group on the Home
tab to open the Styles window. Click on the Manage Styles button. In the
Manage Styles dialog, on the Edit tab, select the Normal style, click
Modify..., and change the language of the style. Make sure you select the
radio button for "New documents based on this template."
