Adverb Overuse Finder
Paste English prose to find sentences with repeated common adverb candidates. The list is intentionally limited, so use each result as an editing prompt rather than a grammar verdict.
A QUICK WALKTHROUGH
How to use this tool
- Paste up to 50,000 characters of English text.
- Choose how many listed adverbs a sentence must contain before it is flagged.
- Review matching words and their sentence in context; decide whether any wording should change.
A small English candidate list
The browser checks a fixed list of common English adverbs such as really, quickly, carefully, very, and probably. It does not try to identify every adverb or infer grammar from context.
Sentence-level review prompt
The threshold counts listed word matches in each sentence. It highlights sentences that meet the chosen count and shows the matching words. A match may be useful or necessary; the tool does not judge writing quality or suggest replacements.
Local and limited
Analysis runs in your browser and the text is not uploaded or saved. Detection is English only, limited to the included list, and may miss adverbs or flag a word used differently in context.
GOOD TO KNOW
Common questions
Does it detect every English adverb?
No. It uses a small, fixed list of common words and does not perform grammatical parsing.
Does a flagged sentence need rewriting?
Not necessarily. The count is only a prompt to review repeated candidates in context; it does not assess quality or meaning.
Does the text leave my browser?
No. Matching and sentence review happen locally in your browser.
