Editing and redrafting, sentence 3
Spellcheck and autocorrect are helpers, not editors: "The dog bark at the mail man" passes, because every word is a real word, yet "bark" should be "barked" and the reader still stumbles.
Who acts: Spellcheck, dog bark, word, reader · What happens: be, pass, bark, stumble · To what, where: helpers, real word, bark · Speech: someone speaks here
