How to Use the in-built Spell Check Tool on Google Chrome

Writing on the internet with the correct spellings defines your intelligence. And because you are writing on the internet, you don’t exactly need to memorize the spellings. The internet has so many applications and there are browsers which have inbuilt spell check tools which can be installed or enabled for the browser which helps you correct the wrong spellings, saving you the embarrassment. These tools that spell-check for you are definitely a life saver.

How Spell-Check Tools on the Browser can Help you

1. Corrects your spellings while you are still typing it, or before you are sending it. Spell-check tools on the browser can help you identify wrong spellings instantly before you send the email or the comment on any social networking forum. This is not it. There are certain spell-check tools which, if downloaded on your browser, for instance, you download a spell-check tool on Google Chrome, can also correct your Grammar and missing punctuations. Isn’t that cool?
2. Saving you the embarrassment. Assume that you are the CEO of a very reputable company, and while writing an email, you send the wrong spellings to a client. How embarrassing would that be? Well, you don’t need to be embarrassed anymore because you can recheck your spellings through these Spell Check tools on the browser, which proofreads whatever you write on the internet before you finally hit the send button.
3. Improving your spellings, grammar and punctuation sense. Just how back in school, children were given corrections for the wrong spellings, and they would learn these spellings instantly because the teacher corrected them, you can now as well, learn these spellings as the ‘teacher’, that is the spell check tool here, corrects your spellings on the go at all times. I have personally experienced this after downloading a spell check tool on my Chrome, where I make lesser spelling mistakes because I have been corrected so many times by this application to correct the spellings for these specific words.
4. Saves you time. Who wouldn’t want someone else to highlight the spelling errors in any article or email? The time you will take to reread everything and find errors, and the time these spell check tools take and underline or highlight the wrong spellings, has a huge difference. It will save you a lot of your precious time which can be utilized elsewhere, if not finding spelling errors in your writing piece.
