Sometimes you need to go into font to choose a font and to clear formatting. Doing this is a lot less painstaking than using the Jaws analyzer, which doesn't always give helpful information.

If the document was created while Word was set to a different proofing language, Jaws announces the language of the document. Jaws also sometimes announces the language if your system is set to a different language.

I don't remember if Word 2007 is the same or different from Word 2010. In 2010, there are two items that say Language. The second one is the one that allows you to set the proofing language. Press enter on that item. Then select English U.S. from the drop down list, pressing enter on OK when you're done. That should change the language of the document to English, so Jaws should stop telling you it's Catalan.
