One of the most helpful features that modern devices and software offer is spell-checking.
Spell-check uses a pre-configured dictionary and then checks every word that you punch in against the dictionary.
Google Chrome is one of the pieces of software that includes its own built-in spell checker.
Its not bad, but alternatives are available.
Some websites such as Google Docs use their own spell checker that overrides Chromes built-in one.
Extensions such as Grammarly are also available that replaces the built-in spell checker on all websites.
There is another option though.
Chrome has a second Enhanced spell checker option that you could manually enable.
This option can be more effective at identifying misspelled words as it has far more data to work with.
It also supports grammar, homonym, and context-sensitive corrections, which the default spell checker lacks.
This essentially means that nothing you punch in in Chrome with this feature enabled is private.
Any sensitive topic you bang out about will be sent to Google.
How to enable Enhanced spell check in Chrome
