    It's fun.

    There are two kinds of people in the world: those who can extrapolate from incomplete data. There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

              M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

                  Probably. I installed the free version. It is quite interesting. I like how the product works.

                    Unless things have changed in the past 6-9 months, not many educated people are writing it either. We have someone who runs press releases through it before distribution to catch errors and it actually suggests changes that make the grammar worse! Best case it entirely misses blatant errors. In the end we hired a proof reader with a brain. :sigh:

                      I believe it. I've had it do it to me as well. Of course I assumed I must be wrong because I don't pretend to be a grammar genius. That is funny you saw that as well. :laugh:

                        I feel like developing spelling/grammar checks are two tasks that should never be outsourced. All localization should be handled by a team of native speakers lead by a primary school teacher of said language. Preferably one who isn't afraid to use a ruler like a Catholic school nun. :-D
