Michael, thanks for explaining how to make the blue word-by-word underlining disappear again. It has worked. Indeed LyX marked the copy-and-pasted text as English although it was pasted from one German-language doc to another. Well, all works well again, and what‘s more, I‘ve learned another workaround in LyX.
