watman Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 Has anyone every used Grammarly and if so what were there thoughts on it? My writing is OK, however it looks like to could make me a more effective writer? How does the free version compare to the pro version and is it worth the subscription?

Princess Balestra Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 My view as a SRSLY NON-MATH GAL is as follows ... I got real ishoos rn with the WIN 10 calcyoolaror bcs it regularly skips digits. I trust it to ADD STUFF UP an' DIVIDE BY "better for Moi" type results (speshly when I out shoppin') ... yet still it maxes out on LAME. My beef here is how I so CRAP at math ... yet I see sumtimes when the calcyoolator ditzes out. I would nevah wanna trust grammar to no SIMILAR CONVENIENCE-BASED SCHEME. O, Everflooid Discourse! Refrain always from bein' enslaved! Tellya, my rules for grammatarialistic excellence are these ... 1) If'n you keep writin' shit down the way you do an' nowan evah complains, either you RIGHT or evrywan with whom you interact is EQUALLY FRICKIN' STOOPID. 2) All grammar problems are ultra specific. If'n you can't figure your WHICH from your WITCH from your EVIDENTLY LICKABLE HYPNOTIC SCHWOOZHOLE, likely you can go Google. That said, as the planet descends into a degenerate swamp fulla equally uninspirin' shriekin' goobers, who' c'are's 'whe're e'er' the apostrophlisticalisms figure in the deal?

Mike Friedman Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 I've been using the free version for about two years now. I like it. It catches a lot of stuff. I don't know about it making you a "better" writer, but it will certainly save you from sounding illiterate at times. I honestly don't even know what else the paid version comes with.

watman Posted May 5, 2019 Author Share Posted May 5, 2019 When I say "better" writer I probably mean a more confident writer if that makes sense. Think the paid version comes with plugins for the full version of word. Mike Friedman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDarkestKnight Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 I have been using Grammarly for about a year now. I like it except now and then it doesn't seem to play nicely with certain sites in certain browsers. For example, sometimes it makes the reply box in Facebook go a little haywire. I have had it cause issues on this forum platform too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mallennig Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Grammarly is a big help especially when you're writing fast. Though you also really have to pay attention to what it corrects as there are cases when it reads a word wrong. Like tenses, or when the sentence is too long. It kinds of confuses Grammarly too. Bur Overall, it's good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krisvertelo Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 For me, Grammarly Premium is worth it. The free version is a useful tool, and better than not having a second set of eyes look over your writing. It will identify far more spelling and grammar mistakes than your typical free checker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FizzMark Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 If you take your writing seriously, Grammarly Premium is definitely worth the extra expense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
