What it does

This is a syntax highlighter for English. It uses natural language processing to determine the part of speech for each word and highlights accordingly. It works with tricky sentences too, e.g. The man we saw saw a saw. To try it out, enter any text into the area to the left. Then, press tab or click outside of the text area in order to refresh the highlighting. 2017/07/21 Underline mode instead of text colors, as suggested by the comments. 2016/09/09 You can now toggle the colors by clicking on the legend. Try it out! Suggestions or comments? Send them over tofrom english.edward.io
