What the German Grammar Checker does

German grammar puts a lot of information into word endings. Articles and adjectives change across four cases and three genders, the verb moves to the end of a subordinate clause, every noun is capitalized, and commas set off clauses by rule rather than by feel. Small slips, like haben instead of sein in the perfect tense, are easy to make. This checker corrects all of these.

It is useful for learners at every level, international staff writing to German colleagues and native speakers checking das versus dass before sending. It keeps your choice of du or Sie. After the corrected text, a short list explains each change, for example einen neues corrected to ein neues because Restaurant is neuter.

Questions

Does it handle Swiss German spelling?

If your text uses Swiss conventions such as ss in place of ß, the checker keeps them. Swiss dialect itself is not checked.

Does it fix comma rules?

Yes. It adds commas before subordinate clauses introduced by words like dass, weil and wenn, and between main clauses where required.

Will it switch du and Sie?

No. It keeps the form of address you chose, unless you mix both in the same text, in which case it notes the inconsistency.

Is it free?

Yes. No sign-up, up to 12,000 characters per check.
