Note
Your Grammarly account allows you to access the Grammarly editor. You can use it to write and edit documents directly in your browser without having to install other applications.
You can now customise your language settings in Grammarly. This allows you to determine which English dialect is used to check your texts. The application recognises differences in grammar, punctuation and spelling – such as color (US) and colour (UK).
You can choose between the following dialects: British English, American English, Canadian English, Australian English and Indian English.
Use the instructions on the Grammarly website to customise your language settings (in English).
You can find detailed information and instructions for the Grammarly software on the Grammarly websites.
