There are spell-checkers and grammar-checkers. Both are far from foolproof. I don't use grammar-checkers, and only use spell-check because there are a handful of common words that I've never been able to remember and as a lifelong excellent speller I don't want to misspell them. Embarrass...accommodate...are two.

My wish is for a checker that will correct misuse use of their, there and they're. And misuse of apostrophes. And where/were/wear. I cringe when I see these errors.

Oops! Thanks. Corrected.
Now why couldn't the spell-checker know what I was thinking?
