When you are typing in your document, you may notice a red/blue/green squiggly line appear beneath some words or sentences.

This is the spelling/grammar tool telling you that something isn’t right. (Red means that there is a spelling mistake and any other colour refers to a grammar mistake)

This can either mean that there is a spelling mistake, or that the grammar of the phrase/sentence isn’t quite right
