Thanks in advance.

automatic grammar checking in English Sep 5, 2011

MS Word's grammar checking is quite basic and I'm looking for a recommended tool that can automatically analize text and then correct grammar ,punctuation and spelling errors. For example, I want it to scan my text and then provide a corrcted version of that text. (I searched Google for such a tool, but I only find manual tools and not automatic tools).

Try using Xbench for spelling and formal language checks... Sep 20, 2011

Hi Priscilal,

Take a look at some of the tools translation agencies use for analysing source documents and translations such as ErrorSpy or XBench. They can help you find inconsistencies in punctuation, spelling, numbers, terminology etc. XBench is great and it's free as well. You can find it at: http://www.apsic.com/en/products_xbench.html.

Hi Priscilal,

Take a look at some of the tools translation agencies use for analysing source documents and translations such as ErrorSpy or XBench. They can help you find inconsistencies in punctuation, spelling, numbers, terminology etc. XBench is great and it's free as well. You can find it at: http://www.apsic.com/en/products_xbench.html. An application that actually picks up complex grammatical errors does not really exist. The best bet is to use your head and some good books. Xbench can be really useful if the version of Microsoft Word that you have does not include the Spanish language proofing tools.

I hope this helps you.

Best regards,

You could use Verifika for fast resolving of Spelling, Inconsistency and formal errors Jun 12, 2012

Hi,

I could recommend Verifika for fast resolving of spelling, inconsistency, formal and language-specific errors.

It's quite easy to start working, and allows to resolve errors right in the report.

For most kinds of errors, it provide autocorrection (like Word does for spelling), so you could process errors quickly.
