I also suggest using http://www.dictionary.com. It’s a very good site for learning the meanings of words, but more importantly in your case, it can take a misspelled word, and suggest things that you *might* have meant to give you the correct spelling.

I strongly urge that you do not rely too much on a spell-checker. While they can be helpful, they can also help you make some THOROUGHLY ridiculous spelling errors that stand out like a sore thumb. Find a person to read over your work if you are in doubt.

Good luck!

For full disclosure, I do work for the company, but as this is exactly what the software is designed for, I thought it worth posting.

Get a book entitled “Eats Shoots and Leaves”. (Seriously)

Correct spelling and proper grammar are all a matter of rote memorization.

Check with a teacher about “run-on” sentences. Your question is a classic example. It ought to be six sentences.

By the way, its Where and grammar.

Or college.
