About The Grammar Index
The Grammar Index is a complete reference to English grammar, designed for writers, editors, teachers, students, and anyone whose work depends on getting language right. Search clear, authoritative entries covering everything from punctuation and parts of speech to clauses, voice, mood, register, and the structural patterns underlying English sentences. Each entry is concise, example-rich, and free of jargon — written to answer a real question, not to show off terminology. WHAT'S INSIDE • Fast full-text search across the entire reference • Detailed entries with worked examples • Cross-references between related concepts • Works fully offline once your device is activated • Clean, distraction-free reading layout tuned for iPhone, iPad and Safari Web Browser WHO IT'S FOR • Writers and editors who need quick, reliable answers mid-draft • Teachers preparing lessons or marking student work • ESL and EFL learners building deep grammar knowledge • Translators and copy editors who need precise terminology • Students studying English, linguistics, or composition ONE LICENCE, EVERY DEVICE Your Grammar Index licence works across iPhone, iPad and Safari Web Browser. Buy once, use forever — no subscriptions, no recurring fees. The Individual licence covers two devices; the Team licence covers thirty; the Institution licence scales for schools, colleges, and universities. OFFLINE-FIRST Once your device is activated with your licence key, the entire reference is available without an internet connection. Perfect for classrooms, exam halls, planes, and anywhere connectivity is patchy or unavailable. ACTIVATION A licence key (format: GI-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX) is required to use the app. Licences are sold separately and arrive by email after purchase. Enter your key on first launch to activate the device. PRIVACY The Grammar Index does not track you, does not show advertisements, and does not collect data about how you use the app. Your licence key is the only identifier sent to our servers, and only for the purpose of validating your device against your licence's allowance. SUPPORT Email [email protected] for help with your licence, your devices, or the app itself.
What’s new
Version 1.3.0 · Updated September 7, 2026
READ ALOUD Every title, definition and example now has a speaker button. Hear the word or sentence spoken in a clear, natural voice, and set the reading speed to suit you. The quiz reads each question aloud too. NEW TOPICS Eleven new topics and a new Imagery & Poetry section, covering metaphor, simile, personification, alliteration and more. The quiz knows the difference and asks the right question for each. AND A JOKE Many topics now close with a grammar joke of their own, with its own speaker button. ALSO • Examples keep their emphasis, so the corrected wording in a note stands out. • Cards tell you how many examples a topic has before you open it. • The quiz remembers which topics you have read between visits, so it keeps drawing on what you studied. A shorter version if you prefer bullets: • Read aloud: hear every term, definition, example and quiz question, at your chosen speed • Eleven new topics and a new Imagery & Poetry section • A grammar joke at the end of many topics • Notes keep their emphasis, and cards show the example count • The quiz remembers what you have read between visits
