Frequently asked questions about WGrammar

Can I use WGrammar in a web application?

Can I add patterns to catch specialized grammar errors or problems WGrammar does not detect?

Do I have to pay royalties or other licensing fees to bundle WGrammar with my application?

Do you have a grammar checker in languages other than English?
