I downloaded the software and tried, but rather to examine it, I thought it would be interesting to interview a company representative via email. Mr. Mager, online marketing analyst, agreed to my request. Before he sent his answers, he said he checked them with a colleague to make sure they were accurate
JG:.? Could you briefly describe how grammarly is different from other grammar checking programs
grammarly provides automated grammar, spelling and plagiarism control. Its technology attracts 10x more errors than Microsoft Word, while offering unique features such as writing and development of citations suggestions.

JG :. Do you recommend a different prose style for the print settings you make to the settings in line?
Our linguists approach grammarly with a classical approach, academic. We are aware that the context is essential to good communication. A well-written sentence or paragraph can make the difference in receiving a quality success or failure, job, or a good story.

JG :. How different reading experience when reading text on a computer screen?
Last year, the grammarly team conducted a survey to obtain more information about this topic in our community of nerds words about their reading habits. We found that over 6,744 responses, 79% prefer reading printed books against e-books. Another study showed that 1,929 responses 39% would prefer their children read printed books while 11% preferred e-books and 34% of respondents simply wanted their children to read! It is clear that there is a more positive experience with holding a paper book than watching a screen
JG :. If these differences change the way we think about writing for the computer?
The most important thing on the computer writing or printing, is that we write with clarity and creativity. If readers can not understand what we write, our message is lost on them - no matter what we say. What I personally noticed is that writing on paper is often more formal than writing online and written in long form. online writing tends to be more succinct, with several paragraphs and bullets to break up thoughts. This is probably due to our short duration digital careful
JG :. I allowed grammarly assess the first paragraphs of The Old Ernest Hemingway man and the sea Robert Louis Stevenson Treasure Island , and Mark Twain Tom Sawyer . According grammarly, each has problems with verbosity. Is this a false positive, a change in historical norms or valid objection to their style?

JG :. Forgive me, but you made a mistake in your letter to me, saying, "stuck a deal" rather than "hit a nerve." It's very difficult to catch, as you have correctly spelled each sentence, and he was grammar. Would grammarly be able to find such a mistake if she used the type of statistical algorithms that Google uses when it asks research alternative phrasing?
grammarly is able to pick up "stuck and hit" an agreement and other contextual errors such as "there, their, they're," but we are still adding to the contexts that they can be found. Our program is constantly learning, similar to how Google uses statistical algorithms, and while grammarly is not perfect yet, we are still the leader in writing enhancement software
