Very often, my source documents are not in human-readable formats (such as Word). This makes it impossible to run a grammar checker after completing the translation.
Is there an effective grammar checker tool (Verification F8 option) to use in Trados 2022 for Spanish?
I have been testing MS Word, LanguageTool and Antidote but none of them worked, for different reasons.
Thank you in advance for your ideas!
Hi there!
I was wondering whether this was the right place to post this question 
Please let me know if it does not!
I have been reading some more threads about this topic, and I could see that I am not the only one having problems with MSWord grammar checker. For me, the main issues are that it does not detect obvious mistakes and it takes extremely long to finish the scan (sometimes more than an hour).
Regarding LanguageTool, I did not manage to install it and I suspect it is about the Java setup. Is anyone else using this tool? I'd be grateful for some feedback ;)
Basically, I would like to know which tools translators are using as a grammar checker, specially for Spanish!
Thanks a lot!
And as you are using Trados Studio 2022, this PlugIn might also do the job for you. When you decide to use it, deactivate the checking during translation, as this slows TS extremly when working. You can run the grammar check after having finished the translation, this worked always well for me. However, the job done by this grammar checker is by far not that good, as Language Tool (paid subscription) can provide. For this reason I only use LT now, no Word grammar checker anymore.
