From your description (that's missing the Word version, BTW), I'd guess that the
bottom part of the document has been formatted with a different language.
Perhaps you pasted in some text from the Internet or another document that was
formatted with a language for which you don't have proofing tools? If you click
in some of that text, then go to Tools/Language/Set language, what language is
selected?
