Grammarly Premium is accessible, for the most part, with NVDA

Hello blind writers, Many people want to use grammarly. I found that the premium plan is usable with a screen reader such as nvda. I could correct grammar and improve readability. I also could check plagiarism. The editor shows an explanation for the suggestion. You need to find when nvda announces clickable. Once you find it press enter. The suggestion will be inserted. If you want to improve readability, it shows some buttons such as transition word, rewrite sentence and so on. You can click it to add transition word and rewrite the sentence again. |

Topic title updated for clarity. Given the number of questions we get about whether or not Grammarly is accessible, this welcome announcement needs to have a clear title expressing that good news.
-- Brian - Windows 10, 64-Bit, Version 22H2, Build 19045 There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year-old's life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs. ~ John Rogers |

That's good to know! It has always been inaccessible up until now, so it's great they have done work to improve it. Quentin. On Fri, Nov 4, 2022 at 4:11 AM farhan israk <fahim.net.2014@...> wrote:

Hi Farhan,
Could you please describe your full workflow?
I have some text I want to check. I can paste it into an editbox on the Grammarly website. What happens then? How do I know what text has been flagged by Grammarly?

Hy Pranav, First, paste the text on grammarly web editor. You can write there as well. Then, press f6. It will suggest that you correct the text. If you press enter on any suggestion, it will show you an explanation. Then, you need to find inserted suggestions. For example, nvda announces inserted firm. If you press enter on it, the suggestion will be replaced. Do not use the extension or the software. Correct on website. On Fri, Nov 4, 2022 at 6:16 AM Pranav Lal <pranav@...> wrote:

You go to Grammarly.com and use the editor on the site.
