Example mistakes caught only by Grammarly

Review this sentence for commonly confused words.
Ensure you do not confuse similar words with different meaning.
Suggested correction:
The philosopher did not speak aloud often. -
Review this sentence for squinting modifiers.
The modifier “effectively” may be defining either clause in your sentence and is therefore a squinting modifier. Make sure it is clear which clause is being modified by this word.
-
Review this sentence for preposition misuse.
Your sentence may use “for” after “to be careful”. Please re-read your sentence and ensure you have used the correct preposition.
-
Review this sentence for comma use.
Ensure there is a comma between direct quotes and the attributive tag. The attributive tag, (“said”), should be separated from the quote by a comma; consider inserting one.
-
Review this sentence for quantifier usage.
The quantifier “less” may not be appropriate for the noun which it modifies. Clearly identify the noun as countable or uncountable, and consider changing the quantifier, as appropriate.
