today I learned how to use spellcheck in vim (neovim.io/doc/user/spell.html):

1. turn it on with `:setlocal spell spelllang=en` (I mapped that to <leader>s)
2. `]s` goes to the next misspelled word
3. `zg` adds a word to the dictionary

I might even one day use this knowledge to start checking for typos before I publish my blog posts :)

@b0rk the sad part is that it is really much much better than the spell check that ships with MacOS these days 😩

@aconbere I'm really surprised by how good it is, it seems like it has some grammar checking too

@b0rk @aconbere no real grammar checking, but dictionaries come with some few combination rules (think about pronouns+verb in some languages) They're also thesaurus.
