In this presentation I will be creating a brief guide for Microsoft word. Microsoft word is one of the most popular software to use as it uses simple words to help new users . Also it has spell check and grammar check etc.
Proofing
As you can see, Microsoft word underlines the word in red which has not been written correctly with the correct spelling. To fix this you highlight the word and right click, and click on the correct spelling which Microsoft word automatically knows.
Grammar
When a word is underlines in blue, it means the wrong word has been used, like their, there or they’re. You can also correct this mistake by doing the same as when the sentence is underlined in red (previous slide).
Basic words – Thesaurus
Microsoft can come in handy when it comes to finding much more creative and advanced words. Like the word “Happy”. When you type the word Happy on Microsoft word, you can highlight the word, right click and then click “Look up” and on the side a list should show up. You can scroll down and then look at the thesaurus which will have better words like “exultant”.

Grammar/Style checker Verifies written text for grammatical correctness and detects stylistic problems
Thesaurus Lists synonyms and antonyms of words (if any are available)
