Advantages

The linguistically based Congree language exam offers many advantages. Some examples:

  • High coverage:
    Due to its morpheme dictionary, the Congree language examination covers at least 98% of the words in a German text including technical language. Every ad hoc correctly formed word is recognized.
  • Complex grammar checker:
    The Congree grammar checker stands out for its complexity. It even includes phenomena such as gender, number, case, sentence punctuation and verb-subject congruence.
  • Linguistic terminology check with term variant recognition:
    A linguistic terminology check that also recognizes term variants is one of the hallmarks of the Congree terminology exam. Inflection, prefix and suffix, separate and compound spelling, hyphens, conversion of words and spelling mistakes are taken into account by term variant detection.
  • Examination according to your editorial guide, tekom guideline or Simplified Technical English:
    With Congree, individual rule sets can be put together to electronically map an editorial guide. It is also possible to fall back on machine-checkable rules from the repertoire of the tekom guideline "rules-based writing". The Congree Authoring Server also supports all of the authoring rules of issue 7 of Simplified Technical English (STE), which allows you to create a rule set using STE rules for technical documentation. Optionally, Congree will report words that are not allowed under the STE, or report potential violations of the STE rules for writing.
