We built 234Grammar because we were tired of international tools flagging our perfectly valid Nigerian expressions as "errors."
International grammar checkers weren't built with Nigerian writers in mind
Trying to pay for Grammarly? Good luck. Virtual dollar cards fail 70% of the time. Exchange rates change daily. It's a nightmare.
❌ Card declined
You've probably seen this too many times
"I'm coming" gets flagged as wrong. "Drop your contact" is an error. "No wahala" confuses the AI. These tools don't understand us.
"I'm coming now"
❌ Grammarly: "Did you mean 'going'?"
75 million Nigerians speak Pidgin. BBC even has a Pidgin service. But not a single grammar checker supports it. Until now.
"Wetin dey happen?"
❌ Other tools: Everything is "wrong"
✓ 234Grammar: Correct Pidgin!
We got tired of explaining to international tools how Nigerian English works. So we built our own.
It started with a simple frustration. As a Nigerian developer writing daily — code documentation, client emails, blog posts — I kept hitting the same wall: every grammar checker treated Nigerian English like broken English.
"I'm coming" would get flagged. "Hold my hand small" was an error. "No wahala" confused the AI. I found myself either ignoring suggestions or spending time explaining to the tool how we actually speak.
The final straw? Trying to pay for Grammarly Premium. Three virtual dollar cards. All declined. ₦5,000 in failed transaction fees. Just to check my grammar.
I thought: "There has to be a better way."
So I built 234Grammar. A tool that understands how we write. That accepts naira. That doesn't make you feel like your English is "wrong" just because it's Nigerian.

"I built 234Grammar because I needed it myself. Every feature is something I wished existed when I was writing."
"Make grammar checking accessible, affordable, and culturally relevant for every Nigerian writer"
No dollar cards. No payment failures. Just fair naira pricing that actually works.
Built by Nigerians who understand how we speak, write, and communicate.
Professional-grade grammar checking without compromising on Nigerian English.
The principles that guide how we build 234Grammar
We don't treat Nigerian expressions as "errors to fix." Your English isn't broken — it's just different. And that's exactly how it should be.
Your writing is yours. Our grammar engine runs locally in your browser. We don't read your documents. We don't sell your data. Ever.
Every feature request matters. We listen to Nigerian writers, students, and creators. This tool exists because of you, and it's shaped by your feedback.
₦1,500/month. No hidden fees. No surprise charges. No "premium premium" tier. Just honest, transparent pricing that makes sense for Nigerian pockets.
