You should notice that the message says The spellcheck is complete
There is no grammar correction. That is one of the (main?) reasons people
prefer MS Word ;)

In any case using Word 2003, the final sentence after grammar correction is
Does he know that he has wrong? which is much better than Does he known,
that he has wrong. but still isn't correct English...

So, the answer is B) grammar check is not usable at all only spell
checking is performed (which means that the menu option name Spelling and
Grammar is misleading)

The built-in English grammar checker (Lightproof) does not know many
rules. It does not mean, that B) grammar check is not usable at all.
It works as designed. Spell checkers and grammar checkers are UNO
components, so users don't have to use the standard, built-in ones,
but it is possible to use alternatives. Examples include Zemberek
(Turkish spell checker), Voikko (Finnish spell checker), Duden
Korrektor (German), and LanguageTool (grammar checker for many
languages).

Andras

I'm sorry but I couldn't avoid laughing at this...

Works as designed? Yes, this is true. It is indeed *usable* but USELESS.
Sorry for picking the wrong word.

From a functionality point of view this is the same as saying that LO does
NOT provide a Grammar checker for en_US. You should get an Extension if you
require that Extra feature. This means that the menu option IS misleading.

I am aware that the Language tools are not developed by TDF but then to be
perfectly honest TDF should not gloat that Writer has all the features you
need from a modern, full-featured word processing and desktop publishing
tool (I had never noticed the DTP part... LOL)
A Grammar checker is a MAJOR feature of a word processor. Again, playing
with words, it is indeed *included* except that it is useless...

Of course this is not a TDF/LO only problem. Still it is misleading and
disappointing...

Oh, and Language Tool didn't find any errors on that sentence...

Just my 2 cents...

Interesting. Language Tool 2.3  does find that error using LO 4.2 Beta2 but
not when using LO 4.1.4.1...

In any case Does he knew, that he has wrong. is incorrect in English... It
changed an incorrect tense of the verb with another incorrect tense...

On a separate note, if after installing Language Tool 2.3 you disable Java,
you won't be able to start LO again unless you choose to enable it. Choosing
No will put LO in an endless recovery loop.

No, because ... When I use LO with a Germanophone UI, open (or 
create) a text document with grammatical errors in it, I see a 
yellowish bar (not sure, if a dev would call it that way ... ;) ) 
with text in it. So there seems to be some kind of (rudimentary?) 
grammar check inside LO. On my system, there is also a Check 
grammar field to mark, if I start the spellchecker ... ;)

 There is no grammar correction. That is one of the
 (main?) reasons people prefer MS Word ;)

Oh, it is on my system :) I get a yellowish question/hint (depending 
on the type of error, which is found) ... ;)

 In any case using Word 2003, the final sentence after grammar
 correction is Does he know that he has wrong? which is much
 better than Does he known, that he has wrong. but still isn't
 correct English...

O.K.

 So, the answer is B) grammar check is not usable at all only
 spell checking is performed (which means that the menu option name
 Spelling and Grammar is misleading)

O.K. Thanks for your answer
Thomas.
