How To Write Correct English: The Easiest & Quickest Way

Is your reader losing sanity to your typos and semi-alien vocabulary?

Is your writing career devastated by fat finger syndrome?

Or even, is your English teacher mad at your incorrect punctuation, spellings and grammar usage?

Worst of all, do you believe great minds think (or write!) alike, while the rest of the world calls it plagiarism?

(((My head droops in shaming acceptance of a similar past)))

But as I continue to love what I write (and vice versa, I’m a newbie blogger and a student!), I have devised a strategy that helps me in two ways.
It saves me:

  • time
  • effort

But it also saves

  • money (unless I opt to invest in a royalty!)

YOU, my friend, can also enhance the language of your write-up (or even replace good language items for better ones!) in lesser time and with lesser brain exertion.

And the best part,

It will cost you nothing!

How?

DISCLOSURE

This post may contain affiliate links, which means I earn a small portion if you sign up or purchase anything but at no additional cost to you, and rest assured, my friend that I only recommend what I use or regret not using in the past.

So, as I was saying…

WHAT APP?

What you essentially need for writing better, without issues like incorrect

  • punctuations
  • typing errors/ spelling
  • grammar
  • vocabulary
  • plagiarism

…is… you already know it

The Grammarly App!!

HOW TO WRITE CORRECT ENGLISH: STEP BY STEP

Step 1: Install/Sign up for Grammarly

Go to Grammarly and sign up for a free account using a form that looks like

Now, enter your dashboard.

Step 2: Produce your eye-soaring piece of writing

Paste an old text (where it says ‘New’) that you intend to proofread or start typing in that text box. You will see a lot of red lines appearing underneath the errors like this

Step 3: Rectify the red underlines quickly using suggestions

Keep your eyes on the red underlines and correct each as you go till the text is cleared of them. Quickly go through all.

Step 4: Use Grammarly in combo

Grammarly works magic when paired with another app called the Hemingway app. Also free! So copy your proofread text from Grammarly and paste into this app. It will highlight in color codes what your sentence structure looks like. It will also give your sentences correct voice, and show some more vocabulary and spelling corrections.

If you can, let it sit for a day.

Step 5: Final Proofread using a g*dd@3n human brain

You’ll now want to read each sentence in full. Use your common sense and meanings in context as if the text is talking to you. Does it make sense? Good, move on! (If not, tweak it to your understanding)

Remember: A machine cannot fully replace the human mind!

A REAR-SAVING REMEDY

Do you think this simple method (using Grammarly + Hemingway app + your brain only once) can save some editing time and a tushie from your readers’ spank? I for one, do find that using this method has helped me speed up my proofreading process more than 80%.
 
The app does overlook or misunderstand a few mistakes or vocabulary items. But I can not do without Grammarly as it quickly rectifies and suggests what I need. I need these for I’m a very busy writer who is always short on time and distracted by tons of other to-dos. My overburdened and numbed mind tends to overlook language mistakes quite often.
There’s nothing to lose, and pretty much a lot to gain!

ABOUT GRAMMARY (PREMIUM) SALES

In case you’re interested in the premium version, Grammarly goes on upto big 50% offs. Your best bet is to sign up for free now and wait until they info you about the next sale. In the mean time enjoy their personalized progress reports about your weekly word count, mistakes rectified, your comparison to other writers in percentage, new vocabulary items etc. Yea, that’s almost like your high school grammar teacher even got into your inbox.

Enjoy your love-hate relation with Grammarly.
