What this tool does

Typing the same word twice in a row is one of the easiest mistakes to make and one of the hardest to spot by re-reading your own writing. This tool scans your text for consecutive repeats, case-insensitively, lists each one with its line and column, and builds a cleaned version with every repeat collapsed to a single word so you can copy it straight back into your document.

How to use it

  1. Paste or type your text.
  2. Review the list of repeated words and where each one appears.
  3. Copy the cleaned text with the repeats already collapsed.

Frequently asked questions

Does it catch 'The the' with different capitalization?
Yes. Matching is case-insensitive, so 'The the', 'THE THE' and 'the the' are all flagged.
Will it flag words that repeat elsewhere in the sentence, not back-to-back?
No. Only words that appear immediately next to each other are flagged; a word used twice in different parts of a sentence is normal writing, not a typo.
Does cleaning the text change punctuation or spacing?
No. Only the duplicated word is removed; the surrounding spacing and punctuation are left exactly as you typed them.
