First you check for word order.
Then you check for word pair frequency.

- From a practical point of view, the biggest hurdle is constructing the
database to be used for checking the word order.

Constructing the expert system to validate the grammar is fairly
straightforward.  Time consuming, but doable.

- From a legal point of view, the issue is patents.  Thousands of them.
Most of which are obvious, and nothing more than "use a computer to
detect if these words are sequential, or not."
