No, because ... When I use LO with a Germanophone UI, open (or
create) a text document with grammatical errors in it, I see a
yellowish "bar" (not sure, if a dev would call it that way ... ;) )
with text in it. So there seems to be some kind of (rudimentary?)
grammar check inside LO. On my system, there is also a "Check
grammar" field to mark, if I start the spellchecker ... ;)

Oh, it is on my system :) I get a yellowish question/hint (depending
on the type of "error", which is found) ... ;)
