Like most people, you probably learned the basic rules of grammar in school. And like many people, you’ve probably forgotten much of what you learned. Is ending your sentences with a preposition a bad practice? Are there hard and fast rules for when to use who, that or which? Where do the comma and apostrophe go?
All these questions and more can plague both amateur and professional writers.
Our online spelling and grammar checker will answer those questions and (hopefully) help you gain more confidence in your writing.
