Compared to what else I’ve seen, the price and the functionality are the best. I do think Ginger would be helpful for someone who struggles a lot with spelling and major grammar issues, thought they shouldn’t depend on it solely. This is a tough one, especially since, as a native English speaker, I’m not in Ginger’s target audience. For “She wondered if they would invite her to play with them” Ginger suggested “She wondered if they would pay for her to flirt with them.” What?!? Sometimes its suggestions were helpful, other times troubling. WEIRD: Ginger also has a “Sentence Rephraser” which suggests different ways you can say things (usually synonyms). While it lacked the inflection of a human reader, it did offer the options of male or female voice, US or UK accent, so I had a lot of fun hearing my words read aloud by robot Emma Thompson. PRICE OF GRAMMARIAN PRO FOR A MAC TRIALPRO: Since they gave me a Premium trial I got to try out the text-to-speech reader. The proofer automatically shuts off when you click to another window, so you have to wait while it works, and you can’t do anything else on your computer in the meantime. PRO: Ginger did catch some mistakes neither I nor MS Word caught.ĬON: Instead of proofing all at once and showing you the problems all at once, it proofs one sentence at a time while you watch – you can see the sentences flash at the top of the screen – and only stops when it’s found something wrong.
