But I also have LibreOffice and Softmaker Office, neither of which integrates directly with Grammarly. I knew that Grammarly installs as an extension to Word, so that wasn't a surprise. That's about as bad as Word's built-in grammar checker (which I keep turned off because it's so brain dead). My rough guesstimate is that I dismissed approximately 95% of Grammarly's suggested corrections. I tested it on a manuscript for a book I have just about finished. Update: At a friend's urging, I tried Grammarly. For a novice writer that uses Word, I would think it'd be very helpful. I mean, its easy and free and i catch tons of bs that even my most careful miss regularly. I mean, its easy and free and i catch tons of bs that even my most careful checking can miss. It gives its opinion on commas, not all of which i agree on, but at least i look at it.

it highlightes where it thinks i used the wrong word. It picks up if i omitted an article or used redundant stuff. It highlights the stupid typos that are common, like using 'than' instead of 'that' or 'an' instead of 'on'. After, Word looks exactly the same, except there's a green icon in the upper right corner that you can toggle. What I'm talking about with Grammarly is literally something you download and then inside Word you have to go to add ons and select it.

What I found with Hemmingway is that I started changing the way i write to keep that software happy and the writing didn't sound like me anymore. I've tried using for going over stuff like that - its free too and easy to use, but i don't use it anymore.
