A grammar check would be helpful in any text-processing program. No matter how bad your real-world English skills are, downloading a writing editor may help you identify spelling and grammar mistakes. As you type, it makes your work look professional, especially when quality content is paramount for your work.
Even though most word processors, including Microsoft Word, have their own spell-check feature and all the basic features required for a writer to have full control of the quality of the content. Having something that does more than spell-check or basic editing is much of the desired tool to use these days, where you also have grammar and clarity suggestions that might make writing easier for everyone.
The most well-known free writing tool that may be more than spell checks and helps you get rid of grammatical and spelling errors in your work is called Grammarly. It includes desktop and mobile applications, a Grammarly add-in for Microsoft Office products, and extensions for Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Safari.
