Lingucomponent Sub-Project: Grammar Checking

One of the goals of the Lingucomponent project is to design, develop, and implement a Grammar checker for English and other supported languages.

News

• October 2008: A grammar checking API is now part of OpenOffice.org 3.0. LanguageTool now makes use of this new API which allows on-the-fly checking, i.e. checking text while you type. More information about the API is available at the following sources:
  • Grammar Checking page in Wiki
  • Specification (.odt)
  • All grammar checker issues

If you have any interest in helping to implement a grammar checker for the OpenOffice.org project, please subscribe to the mailing list dev@lingucomponent.openoffice.org and introduce yourself, your skills, and your willingness to help this project.
