A Mighty Pen

[Katzenfreund]

Not just mightier than the sword…

It may look like a normal pen, but it does small wonders.

This Pen tells you when you spell words wrong by detecting movements associated with each letter of the alphabet. It won't speak but it will vibrate when a word is spelled wrong.

The pen has two modes: one that points out spelling and grammar issues and another that focuses on legibility and handwriting.


And the obvious thought...Wouldn’t it come useful in exams? Unfortunately, it wasn’t around when I needed it…

Thats a strange invention, write something in ink then realise you spelt something wrong

It would be useless in the United Kingdom, English is our language and if a pen tells me I spell Neighbour the Americans way 'Neighbor' then I will snap it into pieces...
Then again; if Mein Kugelschreiber ist Deutsche zen I vould haf tu spell zings vif ze umlaut...

It was for me :mrgreen:
I have to share this trick, I used it all the way through 11 & 12 grade and probably why my spelling sucks today but thank God for spell checker

Remember the old word processors, looked like a type writer with a tape ribbon not the ink ribbons?

I'd take the tape out, type directly onto blank notebook paper leaving the indent to the letters in the notebook paper.
I had that right on my desk during the test and copied whole essay questions, mathematical formula's and spelling words I could see in the blank paper but teacher could be right overtop of me, see the paper and unless you knew what to look for you were blind to the fact it was there :lol:

You let your cat use the keyboard again, didn't you?
