Considering how often we all send email, and how stuffed our collective inboxes are, you probably already know it’s critical to make sure you don’t miss important messages or let them linger too long without responding. Luckily, there are plenty of tools to make wrangling your inbox a bit easier.
These extensions and tools can help, whether you need to make sure that message to the boss doesn’t contain any spelling errors, your email to the family doesn’t sound too defensive, or your next client pitch has as many emoji in it as it needs.
Bring the Emoji
Imagine your favorite translation engine but with emoji instead of a foreign language. That’s the promise of EmojiTranslate and it does a fine job (even if there are occasional inconsistencies with the results).
With email, like any text, a picture is worth a thousand words, and this tool will help your messages strike a good balance. Just make sure you’re using it with the right audience. There’s a time and a place for emoji.
Type out your text, click the conversion button, and you get the emoji translation below, ready for you to cut and paste. While you might not want to translate emails in their entirety, emoji can certainly make those messages more fun to read.
Stick to the Point
If you have a tendency to ramble, Hemingway tries to directly counter that instinct—and yes, it is named after the famous writer known for the simplicity of his prose.
Compose your digital missives inside the Hemingway editor and you’ll be alerted to issues with adverbs, passive voice, hard-to-read sentences, and complex words that can be replaced by a simpler alternative.
As Hemingway himself once said of a fellow writer: “He thinks I don’t know the ten-dollar words. I know them all right. But there are older and simpler and better words, and those are the ones I use.” If that’s the approach you want to take with your email, this will help.
Check Spelling and Grammar
Grammarly is one of the most popular writing aid plug-ins. The tool flags spelling and grammar mistakes in a discreet but authoritative way. There are extensions for Gmail, Outlook, Apple Mail, Slack, and more, so the tool works just about everywhere and on virtually every website with a text box.
As well as the basics, Grammarly can make suggestions about the clarity and tone of your writing, helping you get the point across in the best possible way, as well as making sure messages are free from typos and other errors.
