I just got the following message, macOS could not be installed on your computer, while trying to install macOS High Sierra. In both cases there was the same cause. In the El Capitan case, as I say in the next paragraph, the hardware clock had reset to zero because it did not have a battery pack.

I haven't played much with Pages, but what I have understood is that languages can be a property of styles. Hence you can have a style called 'body Swedish' and another one called 'body English' and then select among them when writing multi-lingual texts.
Having set the styles properly. The writing of multilingual documents becomes much less of a hazzle.
Yes, you can set the language in a style.
Probably even in a character style (so you can mix different language words in the same paragraph). Haven't tested this last one yet, though.

Most text editor (and layout programs) allow you to use the language like a style attribute. In contrast, the spellchecker in OS X, although working globally in all (Cocoa) apps, which is a nice feature, so far you could only set the language globally but independently from the system language.
It seems like Pages (and maybe Keynote 2) offer more customisation in that sense (but take their default from the system language and not from the language set for the global spellchecker).
My favourite feature of the OS X spellchecker however is the 'Multilingual' setting. It allows you to write in something like ten different languages and only if a word does not exist in any of them it gets marked (without constantly having to change the language setting). This catches basically all typos (though a couple of False Friends will be overlooked).
- Is the spell checking available for Unicode Right-to-Left Hebrew?
- Is anyone using Pages for doing Right to left language?
- Is it capable of it?
To me this is funny because the logic of your questions is bottom-to-top. You're asking: can it be done, is anyone doing it, what about spell-checking?
I wish I knew :-)
The problem is that I'd like to spellcheck Norwegian. Any other Cocoa-app gives me this opportunity using Cocoaspell.
Does this work in Pages? No! You're stuck with the standard languages supplied with the OS.

What I did was:
1. Create a new blank document
2. Press Apple+A to select all
3. Set the language in the Inspector > Text > More > Language to Nederlands (Dutch)
4. Save the document as a template (File > Save as Template) in My templates as 'Dutch Blank'
Now I just select this template if I want to make a Dutch document. Of course you can replace Dutch with your own language :)
hmmm does not seems to work with the Pages2 :(
