The present invention, in one embodiment, aids the user during composition
of emails/letters/documents with assistance for correct gender usage. In
one example application, first an automated user information look-up
process is initiated over centralized databases using the proper names
mentioned in the composition. Once matches are found, gender-related
information is retrieved and the composer is assisted with gender
recognition tools while composing gender-sensitive statements. When
mismatches between proper nouns and the corresponding adjectives/pronouns
are found, this method proceeds with highlighting or otherwise flagging
the mismatching words. Upon right-clicking the highlighted words, the
user is given suggestions for the most probably correct options. Examples
of the idea explained in this invention can be incorporated in existing
software/systems of email/document editor/composers.
