You could write an important email and want to impress the reader. You could write a resume and try to keep it fresh. In short, this duplicate word checker was designed for anybody that writes. Here\u2019s what it corrects:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Amount of accidental word repetition:<\/strong> the same word showing up in an individual section more than once.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Weak verb use:<\/strong> utilizing too many filler words such as \u201cvery\u201d or vague phrases such as \u201cgood\u201d.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Consistently flat toned sentences:<\/strong> starting your paragraph with an equivalent of \u201cThe\u201d or \u201cThis\u201d multiple times.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reader exhaustion from continually saying the same phrases.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some Examples of Who Would Benefit From It:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Students<\/strong> looking for overused words in their projects.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Bloggers<\/strong> that want to compose a clearer version of their work with different words used.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Editors<\/strong> considering how to edit drafts quickly.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Content writers<\/strong> that adhere to SEO standards or style guides.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Anyone<\/strong> doing a final review of their work.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-it-works\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How It Works<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here\u2019s how it goes down, step-by-step:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You enter (paste) your text into the little box<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The tool does an analysis on every word in the text and counts how many times each word occurred<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All of the duplicate words get assigned their own color highlight, so for example if the word &#8220;simple&#8221; is found in that text 4 times, every occurrence of the word &#8220;simple&#8221; will receive the same highlight color. This makes it simple to visually quickly identify duplicate words within your text.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Each list does show the count of all of the duplicate words along with their color in the text itself. And you do have the ability to adjust the minimum number of characters in a word to search out duplicate words using the slider bar located on the right side of the screen<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition, you can upload a .txt text file into the program that will identify duplicate words instead of copying your text into the program from the clipboard. You can copy the results to your own computer or save them as a .txt file<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-limitations-to-know\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Limitations to Know<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This tool&#8217;s purpose is to find duplicate\/repeated words; there are a few limitations:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">First, it will only work with .txt files. It cannot process .pdf or .docx file formats.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Second, this tool will treat the words \u2018run\u2019 and \u2018running\u2019 as different words, so all variations of the same word will not be grouped together.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Third, capitalized versions of words such as \u201cApple\u201d and lowercase versions (i.e., \u201capple\u201d) will be considered the same word.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fourth, shorter words such as \u2018a,\u2019 \u2018in,\u2019 and \u2018of\u2019 may be overrepresented in reports; you may want to use the slider option when reviewing the report to remove these words.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fifth, the tool will not provide any type of spelling, grammar, nor sentence structure checking; it will find repeated (duplicate) words only.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Remember that this tool is only to help with writing and cannot provide the complete solution for editing. Use your best judgment to interpret the result of this tool.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It&#8217;s much easier to write if you have a clear view of the issues. The repeated word tool gives you the option of looking at the repeated word in front of you so that when you are editing your work, you no longer have to guess what to change. I would highly recommend using this tool on your next piece of writing and seeing what a difference it makes.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Why Use This Tool?
