    Default Grammar Checkers

    I am wonder how many people use grammar checkers when they write? We have started relying on spell checkers as second nature so I thought about grammar checkers.

    In playing around I have looked at Grammarly but it is really designed for either Word or a plain text document. I use Libreoffice so I have just recently added Languagetools in to see how this works.

    My reaction to grammar checkers is "Nope, I am right".

    pretty useless when writing dialog.. dialog rarely follows gramatical grammatical rules... spell checkers on the other hand...

    Never understood a noun from an adjective, never ever understood grammar so a grammar checker would be completely lost on me. But that's Secondary School Education for you.

    Maybe Egg but for some of us it can be a useful tool.

    Ha,ha. In my old age or perhaps from by brain damage when it comes to typing I am all thumbs. And for me at least it has become a serious issue.

    Oh bye the way, When I can find the time I am changing the graphic so my question to you becomes clearer.
