ChatGPT Prompt to Correct a Text
Text correction is one of the most powerful uses of ChatGPT. Whether you are a writer, student, professional, or simply concerned about the quality of your writing, ChatGPT can identify and correct spelling, grammar, conjugation, and syntax errors in seconds. Unlike a standard spell checker, ChatGPT understands the context of your sentences and can detect subtle errors such as complex agreements, incorrect verb tenses, or awkward phrasing. It can also adjust its correction level based on your needs: simple proofreading, stylistic improvement, or complete rewriting for a specific register. The major advantage is its ability to explain each correction, making it a learning tool as well. By structuring your prompt properly, you will get precise, organized, and immediately usable corrections while preserving your voice and original writing intent.
The prompt
Act as a professional French-speaking proofreader with expertise in spelling, grammar, conjugation, syntax, and French typography. Correct the following text by applying these rules:
- Correct all spelling and grammar mistakes
- Check agreements (subject-verb, adjectives, past participles)
- Correct conjugation and tense agreement
- Improve punctuation and typography (non-breaking spaces, French guillemets)
- Flag awkward or ambiguous sentences
For each correction, use this format:
- ❌ Original version → ✅ Corrected version (error type)
After corrections, provide:
- The complete corrected text ready to copy
- A summary of recurrent error types
- A score out of 10 evaluating the initial quality of the text
Text to correct:
