I wish I had a grammar check... that would be awesome! I have both spell check and grammar check. It would tell me what to revise in my grammar, that sure really helps alot when writing a novel. Oh for here, I tried, it does not do right the way I want(still learning how to do that)...... I meant for Microsoft word processor.

Randomer than you since 1992 Posts: 5,089 Group: Ships 5000 Post Member #3,684 Joined: July 28, 2008	My computer used to have spell check, but it disappeared while I was on camp, so I have no idea who did what ir how to get it back. It's really annoying because I came to depend on it more than I should. Just yesterday I was editing at tv tropes and I forgot how to spell genuinely, so I tried a bunch of variations and eventually gave up, went to word and used the spell check there. I had been right the first time. Except, the spell check at word is set to American spelling and I can't change it.

If you google a word no matter how badly you spell it you will get a "did you mean genuinely?" There are more pleasant ways to screw yourself over. I've seen recommendations to misspell words.

Like organisation is correctly spelled but it's got a red line under it.
