Today, writers across the globe celebrate National Proofreading Day. (Really, there are literally dozens of us.)

As a content creator, there’s no quicker way to lose credibility than poor grammar. Unless, of course, you’re breaking the rules on purpose.

And Grammarly has been a staple in my preventing-accidental-poor-grammar strategy for years. It’s great. Reliable. And it has definitely saved me from submitting work with glaring mistakes.

That said…

No one gets it right 100% of the time. (Not even computers.)

And so today, in honor of National Proofreading Day, I’m celebrating a few of my favorite Grammarly suggestions that simply missed the mark.

Sometimes subject-verb agreement is hard.

Sometimes Grammarly knows your product better than you – and precisely how to describe it.

And sometimes, Grammarly is in no position to cast the first stone, even if a sentence wasn’t your best work.

As writers, we love Grammarly. And that puts us in a position to have a good-natured laugh at the one we love.

Thanks for all your hard work over the years, Grammarly.
