When accuracy is required, choose human grammar checkers over a software-based grammar check service.\u00a0 Grammar is a complex and contextual science with many nuances that cannot be automated with rules.\u00a0 It has been tried many times over, and the best algorithms have been able to do is rectify a majority of grammatical errors.\u00a0 The majority, unfortunately, is not good enough when it comes to readers of your writing.<\/p>\n<p>Here is a very simple experiment that involves two sentences.<\/p>\n<p>1.

He came from the kitchen.<\/p>\n<p>Software-based grammar checkers like Microsoft Word will fail to find the mistake in the first sentence. \u00a0(I tried it.)\u00a0 A grammar check service run by humans will find the error.<\/p>\n<p>A human grammar checker overlays practical wisdom on grammar rules to ensure the final written document is both accurate and an enticing read.<\/p>\n<p>For example, let\u2019s assume you are writing a horror story.\u00a0 Here are two versions of the same sentence.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Original:<\/strong> He came from the kitchen.<strong><br \/>\nRevised:<\/strong> He slithered quietly into the house from the kitchen.<\/p>\n<p>Which version will you prefer to include in your story?\u00a0 The revised sentence establishes a more descriptive visual that fits the context \u2013 a fictional horror story.<\/p>\n<p>But what if I have a friend who is an English major?<\/p>\n<p>We all have at least one friend who is an English or literature genius. English majors worth their words are experts at grammar.\u00a0 They understand the semantics of English.\u00a0 What they may not know is how to copy edit in a manner that caters to the desired audience.\u00a0 Copy editing goes above and beyond a grammar check service.\u00a0 It requires a mesh of skill and art, just as a clay potter artistically spins clay.\u00a0 Experience is the teacher for a copy editing, while passion drives the art.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, a friend may not be as aggressive as a detached third-party.\u00a0 A friend has a vested interest in their relationship with you.\u00a0 A professional grammar check service will not skew feedback based on relationship semantics.\u00a0 They examine your documents as a private investigator does cases.\u00a0 Employ a grammar check service to ensure any and all errors are brought to light.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A grammar check service can be of two general types, software or human.
