I which MYEC had and option where teachers or administrators may correct the misspelled words or grammar of "Add comments". Box, for instance “I like aples apples” edit by Josef E. Perhas I mey be askig for to much?
Here are some Google Gadgets examples of Worldwide Translators & Dictionaries for your references as possibly giving you some ideas or letting you choose the right direction for all of us;
If I'm not mistaken, there is no automatic spellchecker in EC's blog. Yet, it is a great convenience to have my spelling checked. The only spellcheck I use is the one in Microsoft Office.
I don't remember, it was a long time ago when I tried it.. I think it wasn't too good back then.
And I don't have windows by my self. I think it's Linux version don't have it.. but I'm not sure. I have text to speech in Konqueror in Linux, but I don't use it. :)
I think Opera web browser's windows version had text to speech function build in already a while ago.. it even allowed navigation by voice commands..
But I think letting computer to read your text to find mistakes is a very good idea.. Well it won't work in my case, because I don't know how to speech English words anyway. I only know how to write them in some extend.
So for beginner English learners it might not work as well as for native speakers. But even then it sure is a good idea. :)
Monika: excellent correction attempt! :) You certainly got a lot of it right. Maybe we will put up the corrected version somewhere in a few days. But well done for trying, and thank you :) Anyone else?
Eddy: it seems that you have some spellchecker function on your computer. What operating system (OS) and browser are you using? It could be part of the OS or part of your browser. Firefox has a built-in spellchecker, as does Mac OSX. Not sure about Windows. Does anyone know?
Dear Mr.Joseph,
I think this poem is a good example of cons,in case having a spell checker.
I try to give my corrected version,but unfortunatly it won't be faultless either,(mading it without a spellchecker)
I have a spelling checker.
It came with my PC. It plane lee marks four my revue
It plainly marks for my review
Miss Steaks eye can knot sea.
Mistakes I can not see Eye I run this poem threw through it, Your You're sure real glad twoto know.
It's very polished in its weighway,
My checker tolled me sew so.
A checker is a bless sing thing,
It frees you loades of thyme time.
It helps me right awl all styles twoto read,
And aides me when aye rime. a rhyme.
Each frays phrase come posed composed up on my screen Eye I trustsed to be a joule.?(I'm sure it's not the right word,but I have no idea,I'm sorry)
The checker poured ?o'er over every word
To cheque sum some spelling rule.
Before a veiling avaling checkers,
Our spelling mite might decline. And if were lacks or have a laps,(?)
We would be maid made to whine.
But now bee cause because my spelling
Is checked with such greate flare(?), Their There are know no faults within my site, Of nun eye am a wear Of non I am aware.

aplesapples” edit by Josef E.Perhas I mey be askig for to much?. Secondly, the one we have here just underlines the mistake and doesn't say what the correct word should be.
My opinion is that it is better to have it than not.
