Write important emails in the afternoon

Company analysed a billion words its service corrected to determine how time of day affects spelling and grammar mistakes on the web.

If you’re going to write something important, it’s best to do it in the afternoon, according to a recent survey from Grammarly, an extension for web browsers and Microsoft Office that corrects spelling and grammar mistakes.

For its blog, the company analysed a billion words its service corrected to determine how time of day affects spelling and grammar mistakes on the web.

Grammarly found that, on average, early risers writing between 4 am and 8 am made 11.8 mistakes per 100 words written, while those writing between 10 pm and 2 am made 14.3 mistakes for every 100 words.

People seem to write best in the middle of the day, proving that you really shouldn’t be sending work emails at 4 am According to the data, writers made the fewest mistakes (3.7 for every 100 words) during the afternoon, from 1 pm to 5 pm. So save those important emails for after lunch.
