   Readable, Quick and Easy to Use

   I've tried other proofreading programs and found them to be very limited. ProWritingAid is the only program I know of that has a built-in grammar checker. Also, the free version has a lot of features that paid versions don't have, so I highly recommend it. This program is great for students who want to improve their writing skills. It's especially helpful for those who write in other languages, because the grammar checker can help you spot errors in your translations.

• Is there any possible way to live in Japan temporarily while gaining income?

  For language, try to memorize basic phrases on your flight. Trust Google maps for directions. Google translate can be kinda mid. I used hiNative & lingoza pretty much every day. Anki is nice once you want to really learn vocab after mastering day to day phrases. Source: 12 months ago

• Selamat! Looking to learn bahasa Indonesian before I come in august!

  Here's 1 recommended app called HiNative for you to learn not just words, but also learn about how to pronounce those words. It's available on both Android Play Store and Apple App Store. Been using it to learn portugese and I improve my vocab faster there. Source: about 1 year ago

• ADHD and Learning a 2nd Language - PLZ HALP!

  Today, for words I use a monolingual dictionary as much as possible (often you end up needing to look up many words in a chain to figure out your initial word, but that doesn't bother me so much for whatever reason); I see this also as reading practice. I'll also use https://www.reverso.net/ for short phrases if they don't seem to make sense despite thinking I know each word or structure. Additionally, I have a... Source: over 1 year ago

  Other resources I use -- ProWritingAid, my computer built-in Dictionary (it has its own thesaurus tab) and getting a second pair of eyes. Finding a trusted beta helps so much. Source: 12 months ago

  ProWritingAid: Includes all the features of Hemingway, plus much much more. Grammar checking, word echo checking, style checking, passive voice monitoring, etc, etc. ProWritingAid is a really powerful piece of editing software. Honestly, a little too much for some folks, imho. If you do end up picking this one, I'd recommend choosing a few editing features to use- using too many would cut into your author voice,...
