grammar checker
Digital sentence scrutinizer
A grammar checker is software that scans text for grammatical errors, flagging problems like subject-verb disagreement, incorrect punctuation, or awkward phrasing.
Most word processors include basic grammar checking, while dedicated tools like Grammarly offer more sophisticated analysis.
The suggestions aren't always right—writers learn which to accept and which to ignore.
