Grammarly checks English as you write: spelling, grammar, punctuation, sentence clarity and whether a line reads hard or soft, all underlined where you type. It runs in the browser, on the desktop and inside office documents, so form fields and email bodies outside your local files also get suggestions. It offers candidates, not verdicts. With technical terms, internal wording and casual phrasing, wrong corrections are common; read each one before accepting.
