            Bug ID: 117573
           Summary: Extend LightProof to Support More Grammar Checkers
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.0.4.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

Description:
The LightProof grammar checker is useful, but there are other grammar engines
out there that are worth enabling inside LibreOffice. 

LightProof could be used as sample prototype code for new checkers, or it could
be extended to support multiple.

These are the good engines I’ve come across:
1. LinkGrammar
https://www.abisource.com/projects/link-grammar/

Here is Abiword code that calls it:
http://svn.abisource.com/abiword/trunk/plugins/grammar/linkgrammarwrap/LinkGrammarWrap.cpp

2. Spacy: https://spacy.io/ 

3. Nltk: https://www.nltk.org/

4. PyTorch – NLP: https://github.com/PetrochukM/PyTorch-NLP

LinkGrammar is C++ but has Python wrappers. The others are Python based. There
could be more worth considering. I’m not sure which one is the best or whether
they have an easy CheckGrammar() API ;-)

The Link Grammar could be an Easy Hack.

Steps to Reproduce:
Fire up writer

Actual Results:  
No great grammar checkers

Expected Results:
Sophisticated suggestions


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes
