How does the spelling checker, grammar checker and thesaurus work?

0

When the spelling checker encounters a word it doesn’t recognize, it determines which words in its dictionary are similarly spelled and displays a list of those words, with the most likely match highlighted. The contents of the list are determined only by spelling, so any instances of terms that seem inappropriate in context are completely coincidental. The grammar checker is a “natural language” grammar checker that flags possible problems by performing a comprehensive analysis of the text. The grammar checker may not look for all types of problems; it’s designed to focus on those that are most typical or frequent The thesaurus provides a list of synonyms for the text you look up, and highlights the one that is closest to what you have typed. As with the spelling checker, any instances of seemingly inappropriate terms are coincidental.
