Available as an add on utility.

OR should I say Add on utilities .

There are roughly ten grammar checkers, which provide grammar checking
for roughly fifteen different languages.

However, the quality of that grammar checking range is almost able to
validate first person singular nominative present pluperfect
subjunctive active  voice.  OTOH, that is about the quality of
Microsoft's grammar checking.

Which is a round about way of saying that if you want a grammar
checker in English, you are better off using _The King's English ---
for British English, or _The elements of Style _ for American English,
The Lumko Institute Work book for IsiXhosa, and the equivalents in
other languages.

For a list of which grammar checker works for which languages, hunt
thru OOoForums.
There is a slightly different list on the OOo website.  However, the
last time I looked at it, it omitted at least five grammar checkers
for OOo ---- including the commercial ones.
