Missing an "l" at the end there. The following works.

So, I gather "diction" is more to deal with style of writing and
queequeg appears to be the nearest to a grammar tool we have for now in
Linux. Then there is the java based spell checker for openoffice.org but
the last time I tried it didn't really impress me at all.


I think I am going to give queequeg a try.
