Writefull

Writefull is an intuitive and easy to handle application designed to help you with your writing assignments, providing you with the ability to check if certain words or expressions you used are in their proper form.

Can improve your writing independently or in third-party apps

After a quick and uneventful installation procedure, you can launch Writefull from the desktop icon that it creates. In order to start using it, all you need to do is type in a string of text and take a look at its analysis. However, you may also employ Writefull in third-party programs, and for that, you need to select the string of text or the word in your file that is of interest to you, then press the 'CTRL + Space' buttons on your keyboard to call out the utility.

Can check string of text by relying on Google resources

Writefull resorts to Internet queries as well as Google Books information, enabling you to verify a specific selection against a comprehensive database of written text and ensure its correct usage, by allowing you to see how often it is found in written documents and in what context.
You will then have the possibility of selecting the function that you want to work with, so you can either verify the usage frequency of a certain expression or word, compare the results for two different or related strings, see your word in a sentence to better understand its meaning as well as find synonyms for your term in a context.

Handy educational tool enhancing your language skills

To conclude, Writefull is a helpful and efficient piece of software that can assist you in learning if a certain word or idiom is being used correctly in your written paper, a feature which can prove essential for non-native speakers of English, who might have trouble grasping the accurate form of a certain expression. You may also take Writefull Portable for a spin, which requires not installation and packs the same functionality.
