Description
LanguageTool is a style and grammar proofreading software for English, French, German, and many other languages. You can think of LanguageTool as a software to detect errors that a simple spell checker cannot detect, e.g. mixing up there/their, no/now etc. It can also detect some grammar mistakes.
Supported languages are: Asturian, Belarusian, Breton, Catalan, Chinese, Danish, Dutch, English, Esperanto, French, Galician, German, Greek, Italian, Japanese, Khmer, Persian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Slovak, Slovenian, Spanish, Swedish, Tagalog, Tamil, Ukrainian. Please note that the level of support differs a lot between languages.
NOTE: Starting with LibreOffice 7.4, LanguageTool can be used from LibreOffice without this add-on. However, there are some reasons to use the extension:
- The extension runs on the local machine. No remote server is needed.
- The extension supports all rules working on the level of full text (e.g., opening and closing quotes are recognized even if they are more than one paragraph away from each other).
- The extension automatically adds all lists of correctly spelled words (according to LanguageTool) to the dictionaries used by LibreOffice.
- The extension supports grammar checking of Impress and Calc documents (Only manual checking by the LT check dialog. An automated check is not supported by LibreOffice.)
- The extension offers a configuration dialog:
- Easily activate / deactivate optional rules
- Easily deactivate / reactivate default rules
- Define custom colors and styles for rule groups or single rules
- Change parameters for some special rules
- Define profiles to check different kinds of documents
If you have trouble with the installation, please see our checklist.

Keep in mind it's far from perfect though.
"Can you do plan by yourself? Yoda I speak like and check grammar I do." doesn't have any errors, according to LanguageTools.

LT isn't optimized to find errors that people artificially add to their text.
