All Microsoft Office programs can check spelling, and most can check grammar.
Using Microsoft 365? You may be interested in checking out the powerful new Editor feature in Word! See Editor — your writing assistant for more information.
Run the spelling and grammar checker
To start a check of the spelling and grammar in your document, just press F7.
Click a heading below for more information
Most Office programs automatically check for potential spelling and grammatical errors as you type, so you don’t need to do anything to show errors while you work.
Notes:
-
Automatic spelling and grammar checking is not available in Access, Excel, or Project. You can manually start a spell check by pressing F7.
-
Automatic grammar checking is available only in Outlook, Word, and PowerPoint 2013 (or newer).
Office marks potential spelling errors with a red squiggly line, and potential grammatical errors are marked with a blue squiggly line.
If spelling or grammatical errors aren’t marked, automatic checking might be turned off. You can turn on the automatic spelling and grammar checker.
When you see a spelling or grammatical error that you want assistance fixing, right-click on the underlined word or phrase and choose one of the options to fix the error.
If Office is flagging words as misspelled but you have it spelled the way you want it, select Add to Dictionary to teach Office not to flag that word as misspelled in the future. For more information on this see: Add or edit words in a spell check dictionary.
If you don’t want Office to mark potential errors with squiggly lines while you are working, you can turn automatic spelling and grammar checking off:
-
Open the spelling and grammar options:
-
In OneNote, PowerPoint, Publisher, Visio, and Word: On the File menu, click Options, and then click Proofing.
-
In InfoPath: On the Home tab, click the arrow next to or under Spelling, and then click Spelling Options.
-
In Outlook: On the File menu, click Options, and click Mail, and then click Spelling and Autocorrect.
-
-
Select or clear the Check spelling as you type check box. In programs that have automatic grammar checking, you may also select or clear the Mark grammar errors as you type check box.
Note: In Word, you can turn the spelling checker on or off for only the document you’re currently working with or for all new documents. Select an option in the Exceptions for list, and then select or clear the Hide spelling errors in this document only and Hide grammar errors in this document only check boxes.
If you don’t want Office to check grammar at all (either when running a spell check or automatically as you type), you can turn it off:
-
Open the spelling and grammar options:
-
In OneNote, PowerPoint, Publisher, Visio, and Word: On the File menu, click Options, and then click Proofing.
-
In InfoPath: On the Home tab, click the arrow next to or under Spelling, and then click Spelling Options.
-
In Outlook: On the File menu, click Options, and click Mail, and then click Spelling and Autocorrect.
-
-
Clear the Mark grammar errors as you type and Check grammar with spelling check boxes.
Note: Not every Office program will have both of these options.
In Word, Outlook, PowerPoint 2013 (or newer), you can force a recheck of the words and grammar that you previously skipped by doing the following:
-
Open the document or item that you want to check.
-
On the File menu, click Options > Proofing> Recheck Document. In Outlook you’ll find this under File > Options > Mail > Spelling and Autocorrect
-
Click Yes when you see the warning message about resetting the spelling and grammar checker.
-
Click OK in the dialog box to get back to the document, and then run the spelling and grammar checker again.

Check spelling and grammar in a different language
Microsoft Editor runs in Word for Microsoft 365 to analyze your document and offer suggestions for spelling, grammar, and stylistic issues, like making sentences more concise, choosing simpler words, or writing with more formality.
To use Editor, on the Home tab choose Editor.
Reviewing suggestions
To focus on the issues you care most about, choose a correction or refinement type, like Grammar or Clarity. Then, use the arrows near the top of the pane to step through each of that type of issue.
Choose a suggestion to incorporate it into your document. If you don’t like the suggestion, choose Ignore Once. Or, if you never want this type of suggestion, choose Don’t check for this issue.
Note: If you change your mind about an issue you ignored, close and reopen the document, and go back to Editor. Editor will find the issue again.
Tailor what Editor checks for
By default, Editor checks for several categories of issues, and the suggestions may or may not suit your writing style. To finely tune Editor for suggestions you want, do the following:
-
In the Editor pane, choose Settings.
-
In the Word Options dialog box, next to Grammar & Refinements, choose Settings.
-
Scroll through the list of options. Select issues you want Editor to check, and clear the issues you want Editor to ignore.
Note: Choosing Reset All returns to the default settings.
-
Choose OK.
Tip: Editor is designed to empower you to bring out the best in your writing. We are continually making updates to its suggestions and experimenting to learn which suggestions are most welcome. If you have feedback for us, choose Help Improve Office? at the top of the Word window to open the Feedback pane.
You might notice Editor’s red, blue, and purple underlines in your document even when the Editor pane is closed. That’s because Editor is always running in the background, checking for spelling, grammar, and some style issues.
Right-click the underlined text to see the suggestion. Use context menu to:
-
Listen to the suggestion by clicking the arrow next to the suggestion and then choosing Read Aloud.
-
Skip this instance of the issue by choosing Ignore Once.
-
Tell Editor to stop checking for this issue by choosing Don’t check for this issue.
-
Fine tune the settings for this type of issue by choosing the Options link.
-
Get more information about the issue by choosing See More.
Your document might be written in more than one language, or you might want to switch to another language for Editor to check. If you are set up to use multiple authoring languages (File > Options > Language), Word detects the language you’re writing in, and Editor will check for issues in that language.
However, you might be writing in a language that Word doesn’t detect automatically. In that case, you can get Editor to check text in that language by selecting the text and going to Review > Language > Set Proofing Language, and then choose your language.
When Editor is checking more than one language, the Editor pane lists corrections and refinements for each language in the document.
For information about the issues that Editor checks in various languages, see Editor’s spelling, grammar, and refinement availability by language.
When you work on documents in Word on the web, Editor provides a rich set of features that are coming soon to Word for Windows. Even when you’re not using Word, the Editor browser extension helps you with writing on websites like LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook, and Gmail.
Word marks spelling, grammar, and stylistic issues with an underline. Right-click the underlined word, and then choose the suggestion you want, or learn more about the error and how to correct it.
Or, open the Editor pane to address issues by category.
-
On the Review tab, select Check Document.
-
The Editor pane categorizes spelling, grammar, and stylistic issues.
-
Click each category to address the issues.
Note: For keyboard shortcuts in the Editor pane, there’s no need to press Alt. Just use the underlined letter to select the command (like i for Ignore Once, g for Ignore All, etc) .
-
In the Editor pane, click Settings.
-
Under When correcting spelling and grammar in Word, select Settings
-
For Writing Style, select Grammar & Refinements .
-
Scroll down to see all of the options available, and select or clear the rules you want. The settings apply to all the documents that you edit, not just the current one.
Requirements and availability of the Editor pane include the following:
-
Internet connection: Make sure your connection is working.
-
Intelligent Services switched on: Go to File > Options > General and turn on Office Intelligence Services.
-
Language availability: For information about the issues that Word checks for in various languages, see Editor’s spelling, grammar, and refinement availability by language.

While Word’s spell check works well most of the time, sometimes it can appear to stop operating. Some simple troubleshooting steps will quickly get Word’s spelling and grammar-checking tool back up and running. These solutions apply to Word for Microsoft 365, Word 2019, Word 2016, Word 2013, Word 2010, and Word for Mac.
Causes of Word’s Spell Check Not Working
There are several reasons Word’s spelling and grammar-checking tool might not be working. You might have changed a simple setting, or the language settings may be off. Exceptions may have been placed on the document or the spell-check tool, or the Word template may have an issue.
Whatever the reason, some easy fixes are likely to have Word back to pointing out mistakes in your documents soon.
The spelling and grammar checker may return an error message about the default language or say «Spelling and grammar check is complete» without flagging any errors. You may not receive any message but may notice the tool isn’t functioning.

How to Fix Word’s Spell Checker Not Working
Follow these troubleshooting steps in the order we present, from the simplest solution to the most complex.
-
Make sure Word spell check is turned on, the most likely culprit and most straightforward solution. If you haven’t enabled automatic spell-checking, the tool won’t function as you expect. Also, select the Mark grammar errors as you type and Check grammar with spelling check boxes.
On a Mac, select Word > Preferences > Spelling & Grammar, and select the Check spelling as you type and Check grammar as you type check boxes.
-
Check Word’s proofing language. Word may be set to the wrong proofing language, causing it to miss errors. Make sure Word is proofing in the correct language, and see if this solves the problem.
-
Check for proofing exceptions. A setting for Hide proofing errors, or other exceptions, may have been enabled in the document. The spell-check tool might not work as expected if a user has made exceptions for checking the spelling or grammar.
-
Open Word in Safe Mode. A Word add-in can interfere with the spelling and grammar-checking tool, causing it to work sporadically or not at all. If you start Word in Safe Mode, add-ins aren’t enabled. See if the spelling and grammar-checking tool works. If it does, move on to step 5.
-
Disable add-ins one at a time. An add-in might be the problem if the spelling and grammar-checking tool worked in Safe Mode. Disable add-ins one at a time to isolate the one causing the issue. When you find the culprit, permanently disable it.
-
Rename the default template. If the issue still isn’t resolved, there could be something wrong with Word’s global template, which is called normal.dotm. Renaming the template could fix the problem. Word will generate a new default document without any customizations.
When you rename the normal.dotm template, you lose the default settings you established, including styles, toolbars, AutoText entries, and macros.
-
Repair Word. If all your efforts haven’t resolved the spell-check problem, use the built-in Office Repair utility to fix Word. This tool repairs the entire Office suite even if there’s only one application you want to fix.
This tool is only available for Windows versions of Office.
-
Contact Microsoft Word. If you still can’t fix the problem with Word’s spelling and grammar-checking tool not working, visit the Microsoft Word help page. With a searchable knowledge base, community forums, and contact information, you’ll find additional help.
FAQ
-
Why is Grammarly not working in Word?
If Grammarly in Word isn’t working, you may be working in a password-protected document, you may have opened the document in Protected View, or the document is stored on a network. To solve the problem, save your document to a local drive and open it from there.
-
How do I turn off spell check in Word?
To turn off spell check in Word on a PC, go to File > Options > Proofing. Uncheck the box next to Check spelling as you type. On a Mac, go to Tools > Spelling & Grammar and select Hide Spelling Errors.
-
How do I reset spell check in Word?
To reset Word’s spell check on a PC, go to the Tools menu and select Spelling & Grammar > Options. In the Proofing Tools section, select Recheck Document. On a Mac, go to Tools > Spelling & Grammar and select Reset Ignored Words and Grammar.

Здравствуйте. Многим пользователям приходится часто набирать текст для составления документов, написания контента для сайтов, оформления писем и т.д. Очень важно писать правильно, чтобы не показать себя глупым и невежественным человеком. Я рекомендую программу Word из офисного пакета Microsoft Office. В данной статье хочу рассказать, как проверить текст на ошибки онлайн и в Word 2010 или других версиях этого текстового редактора.
Немного истории
Еще в 2010 году я создал развлекательный ресурс о кино, где публиковал рецензии на фильмы, обзоры премьер, биографии актеров. Спустя четыре года на сайте было размещено более трех тысяч статей. Однажды я решил посмотреть свои первые записи, и был ошеломлен. Обнаружил массу ошибок грамматических и пунктуационных, предложения состояли из множества оборотов, читать их было непросто. На то время я не проверял их на правописание, а зря. Первые дни я не мог успокоиться и редактировал старые тексты, чтобы довести их до ума.
Вывод напрашивался сам: следовало предварительно набирать обзоры в Ворде, чтобы автоматически исправлять ошибки.
В этой программе встроен очень полезный функционал, который выделяет (подчеркивает) некорректный ввод красной или зеленой волнистой линией. Но не всегда проверка срабатывает автоматически. Возможно, её предварительно нужно включить в настройках приложения. Как это сделать – Вы сейчас узнаете!
Варианты проверки
Существует несколько способов «сканирования» документов на наличие ошибок. Перейдем к их рассмотрению.
Как проверить текст на ошибки онлайн
Сервисов существует немало, но самыми распространенными являются Спеллер от Яндекса и Text.ru. Достаточно перейти по указанным ссылкам и вставить в поле ввода нужный текстовый фрагмент.
Автоматическая
Срабатывает по ходу набора текста, чтобы можно было сразу внести изменения. К примеру, Вы пропустили букву в слове, или не поставили пробел после знака препинания. Word сразу же предупредит о необходимости исправления.
Но если Вы вводите заведомо некорректные слова, а система никак на это не реагирует, значит, автоматическая проверка не включена. Как её активировать?
- Заходим в главное меню приложения, кликнув по кнопке в левом верхнем углу.
- Теперь следует нажать на «Параметры Word» (этот элемент может находиться в разных местах, в зависимости от версии программы). У меня это выглядит так:
- Для Ворд 2013 с обновленным интерфейсом меню имеет следующий вид:
- Дальнейшие опции одинаковы для разных выпусков офисного редактора. Слева выбираем пункт «Правописание». А справа находим строчку «Автоматически проверять…» и ставим возле неё галочку.
В самом низу можно задать набор правил для проверки. По умолчанию выбрано значение «для деловой переписки», но можно указать более строгий алгоритм, если хотите устранить максимум ошибок и убрать разговорные фразы.
Проверка по умолчанию
Если во время набора текста начинают подчеркиваться правильные слова, скорее всего они отсутствуют в словаре программы. Нужно их туда добавить. Как это сделать правильно?
- Выделяем необходимое слово / фразу / фрагмент документа;
- Переходим в раздел «Рецензирование», затем – «Правописание» (для Ворд 2007 и выше). Для более ранних версий следует зайти в меню «Сервис». Или проще нажать на клавиатуре «F7». Откроется следующее окно:
Здесь можно либо пропустить ошибку, либо исправить её (могут быть предложены варианты замены), либо добавить её в словарь (если считаете, что слово является правильным и не содержит ошибок).
С этим разобрались.
Но что делать, если Вы пытаетесь выполнить вышеуказанные действия, но перед Вами появляется сообщение «Средства проверки не установлены»? Или же просто отображается окошко, что «Проверка окончена», но красное / зеленое подчеркивание не убирается? В таком случае, необходимо перейти к следующим шагам.
Установка пакета
Речь идет о пакете проверки правописания, который по каким-то причинам не вошел в состав приложения. Возможно, Вы забили указать его во время инсталляции. Решение следующее:
- Переходим в «Панель управления» и открываем раздел «Программы и компоненты»:
- В появившемся окне отобразятся все установленные программы. Следует найти Word, выделить его и кликнуть по кнопке «Изменить»:
- После короткой паузы должно отобразиться окно с предложением добавить новые компоненты / удалить существующие. Жмем «Продолжить» (Далее).
- Теперь следует раскрыть ветку «Общие средства». В ней должны быть «Средства проверки правописания». Кликаем по элементу и выбираем опцию «Запускать всё с моего ПК»:
Вот и всё! Осталось дождаться установки выбранного компонента. После этого рекомендую перезапустить компьютер.
Настройки языка
Бывает, что для одного языка проверка производится корректно, а для другого – вообще не работает. Например, если нужно проверить текст на английском на ошибки. В таком случае, следует перейти во вкладку «Рецензирование» (она есть и в Ворде 2016 года), нажать на изображение глобуса. Это меню выбора языка, где следует снять отметку напротив опции «Не проверять правописание»:
Видео
Если не хотите читать много букв, то можете откинуться на спинку кресла (или стула) и посмотреть обучающее видео, как включить проверку орфографии в Word:
Как видите, всё очень просто. Буквально несколько кликов – и проблема устранена. Теперь знаете, как проверить английский текст на ошибки онлайн (или на любом другом языке). Даже если Ваша ситуация сугубо индивидуальна и не может быть решена с помощью моей инструкции, рекомендую задавать вопросы в комментариях. Я обязательно на них отвечу.
С уважением, Виктор

Lesson 25: Checking Spelling and Grammar

Introduction
Worried about making mistakes when you type? Don’t be. Word provides you with several proofing features—including the Spelling and Grammar tool—that can help you produce professional, error-free documents.
Optional: Download our practice document.
Watch the video below to learn more about using the Spelling and Grammar tool.
To run a Spelling and Grammar check:
- From the Review tab, click the Spelling & Grammar command.
- The Spelling and Grammar pane will appear on the right. For each error in your document, Word will try to offer one or more suggestions. You can select a suggestion and click Change to correct the error.
- Word will move through each error until you have reviewed all of them. After the last error has been reviewed, a dialog box will appear confirming that the spelling and grammar check is complete. Click OK.
If no suggestions are given, you can manually type the correct spelling in your document.
Ignoring «errors»
The spelling and grammar check is not always correct. Particularly with grammar, there are many errors Word will not notice. There are also times when the spelling and grammar check will say something is an error when it’s actually not. This often happens with names and other proper nouns, which may not be in the dictionary.
If Word says something is an error, you can choose not to change it. Depending on whether it’s a spelling or grammatical error, you can choose from several options.
For spelling «errors»:
- Ignore: This will skip the word without changing it.
- Ignore All: This will skip the word without changing it, and it will also skip all other instances of the word in the document.
- Add: This adds the word to the dictionary so it will never come up as an error. Make sure the word is spelled correctly before choosing this option.
For grammar «errors»:
- Ignore: This will skip the word or phrase without changing it.
For some grammatical errors, Word will provide an explanation for why it thinks something is incorrect. This can help you determine whether you want to change or ignore it.
Automatic spelling and grammar checking
By default, Word automatically checks your document for spelling and grammar errors, so you may not even need to run a separate check. These errors are indicated by colored wavy lines.
- The red line indicates a misspelled word.
- The blue line indicates a grammatical error, including misused words.
A misused word—also known as a contextual spelling error—occurs when a word is spelled correctly but used incorrectly. For example, if you used the phrase Deer Mr. Theodore at the beginning of a letter, deer would be a contextual spelling error. Deer is spelled correctly, but it is used incorrectly in the letter. The correct word is Dear.
To correct spelling errors:
- Right-click the underlined word, then select the correct spelling from the list of suggestions.
- The corrected word will appear in the document.
You can also choose to Ignore All instances of an underlined word or add it to the dictionary.
To correct grammar errors:
- Right-click the underlined word or phrase, then select the correct spelling or phrase from the list of suggestions.
- The corrected phrase will appear in the document.
To change the automatic spelling and grammar check settings:
- Click the File tab to access Backstage view, then click Options.
- A dialog box will appear. On the left side of the dialog box, select Proofing. From here, you have several options to choose from. For example, if you don’t want Word to mark spelling errors, grammar errors, or frequently confused words automatically, simply uncheck the desired option.
If you’ve turned off the automatic spelling and/or grammar checks, you can still go to the Review tab and click the Spelling & Grammar command to run a new check.
To hide spelling and grammar errors in a document:
If you’re sharing a document like a resume with someone, you might not want that person to see the red and blue lines. Turning off the automatic spelling and grammar checks only applies to your computer, so the lines may still show up when someone else views your document. Fortunately, Word allows you to hide spelling and grammar errors so the lines will not show up on any computer.
- Click the File tab to go to Backstage view, then click Options.
- A dialog box will appear. Select Proofing, then check the box next to Hide spelling errors in this document only and Hide grammar errors in this document only, then click OK.
- The lines in the document will be hidden.
