Grammar

Last modified: 05 September 2023

PyCharm checks the grammar of text files, such as your project's README.md. You can also configure it to check various textual elements in your source code: string literals, comments, and even your commit messages. It highlights mistakes related to morphology, punctuation, the overall structure, and style.

By default, PyCharm includes English language support and suggests adding another language if it detects one. For more information about supported languages and how to add them, refer to Natural languages.

PyCharm checks grammar using the Grammar inspection. Press to open the IDE settings and select Editor | Inspections. The Grammar inspection is under Proofreading. By default, it is set to the lowest severity level (subtle underline) and is applied in all scopes.
