Author: Are there any add-ins for Microsoft word, that spell checks spanish and checks spanish grammar. Like how it does spell and grammar check for English words on word. If there are what is the link of the add-in.
The add-in has to be free.
I am using Word 2007
If you have the English version, you already have Spanish proofing tools. You have to install them, usually from the Office CD. After you do that, do the following:
1.Click the Office button in the upper-left corner.
2.Click the Word Options button.
3.Click the Proofing tab.
4.Check Check Spelling As You Type.
5.Check Mark Grammar Errors As You Type.
6.Check Check Grammar With Spelling. Note the Settings button. With this, you can select or deselect many nit-picking checks.
7.Make sure Hide Spelling Errors In This Document is UNchecked.
8.Make sure Hide Grammar Errors In This Document is UNchecked.
9.Click OK.
And to make sure spell checking isn’t turned off for any section of the document:
1.Press CTRL/A to select the entire document.
2.Click the Review tab on the Ribbon.
3.In the Proofing section, click Set Language.
4.Uncheck Do Not Check Spelling Or Grammar.
5.Click the Default button. (To make this change permanent.)
6.Click Yes in the message box.
7.Click OK.
Hope that helps.

should i learn spanish phrases before spanish grammar?
It might help to know some basic phrases, because often they can help you learn the grammar. If you know how to say "how are you" and things like that, when you start learning verbs and tenses, you can go back and be like "hey, I’ve seen this before! an example of this verb/tense/etc is in that phrase I know!!" 
so in other words, yes, I think it would be helpful to know some basic Spanish phrases first.

Advnanced Spanish Grammar class?
I’m planning an Adv. spanish grammar class intended for majors and minors (university level, approximately 6th-7th semester of study). Students of Spanish, what would you like to learn in such a class? What’s difficult for you?
Mil gracias por vuestras sugerencias!
I took AP spanish Language last year, which I’m guessing was about the same level as your class will be. One of the most valuable/interesting things we did was a unit on false cognates and things that don’t translate well from Spanish to English. For example, we learned that aplicarse isn’t the right verb when you’re talking about applying to college, all the different ways to say "become" in different contexts (hacerse, convertirse en), other things like that. We also learned lots of common phrases and idioms, which was very useful in conversation as well as writing for the AP exam.
where can i find a spanish grammar and spell check online?
i am not that good in spanish and i’m suppose to turn in this project monday. i want to make sure the "acentos" are there and spelling is right. oh and if u know how to convert Microsoft Word’s dictionary from english to spanish so i can use that instead of the online spell check can u tell me how please!! thanks!!
Go to Yahoo Espana. Write whatever you want and there is a spell check in Spanish. If you want grammar, just write "Gramatica Espanola" and Yahoo will show many sources. Surf them and you’ll find grammar, dictionaries and other tools that will help you.
From today (Saturday night to Sunday) is too short a notice if you have to turn in your work on Monday. Otherwise I would have been more than pleased to write down the rules for accentuating in Spanish, with examples. I can asure you that I would be able to teach you all of them in a very simple way and that you’ll never fail in accentuating correctly. But . . . its late –five minutes to 1:00 a.m. into Sunday 01-06-08. You have to turn in your work tomorrow. Not enough time. Good luck. Adian.

What book is recommended for learning Spanish Grammar? ?
I am looking more into a grammar usage and verb conjugation.
What can you suggest?
I personally suggest Barron’s 501 Spanish Verbs Book — the sixth Edition with CD ROM. The ISBN 978-0-7641-7984-6 and it costs $16.99 and is available at Barnes and Nobles. This book not only has verb conjugation in all tenses, but it also has grammar explanation and exercises. And the CD-ROM is extremely useful.
And if you want, you can combine this book with the Barron’s Let’s Review Spanish with Compact Disc — ISBN 978-0-7641-7581-7 which is $18.99. This book has many grammar exercises and short reading comprehension stories. These books combined are a great tool to succeed in spanish and practice for Standardized Tests.
Good Luck!!
