Tip Word’s grammar checker helps identify phrases and clauses that don’t follow
traditional grammatical rules, but it’s not always accurate. It’s easy to get in the habit of
ignoring green wavy underlines. However, it’s wise to scrutinize them all to be sure that
your documents don’t contain any embarrassing mistakes.- Press Ctrl+Home to move to the beginning of the document, and then on the
Review tab, in the Proofing group, click the Spelling & Grammar button.
The Spelling And Grammar dialog box opens, with the duplicate word to in red in
the Repeated Word box.
Behind the dialog box, Word has highlighted the duplicate to in the document.Troubleshooting If the errors we mention don’t appear to be in the practice file,
click Options at the bottom of the Spelling And Grammar dialog box. Then in the
Word Options dialog box, under When Correcting Spelling And Grammar In Word,
click Recheck Document. Click Yes to reset the spelling and grammar checkers, and
then click OK.- Click Delete.
Word deletes the second to and then displays the first word it does not recognize,
commited, in red in the Not In Dictionary box.- With committed selected in the Suggestions box, click AutoCorrect.
Word adds the misspelling and the selected correction to the AutoCorrect list, so
that the next time you type commited by mistake, the spelling will be corrected for
you as you type. The program then identifies a possible grammatical error.Correcting Spelling and Grammatical Errors 91
