With recent updates, Microsoft Edge has received a new option to the Grammar tools of the Reader view (immersive reader). In addition to Nouns, Verbs, and Adjectives, there is a new option to highlight Adverbs.
Here is how the Grammar tools look in the Immersive reader in Edge stable.
The current Canary build, 82.0.459.1, adds adverbs to the list of options.
Grammar Tools were available in the classic Microsoft Edge app. Thankfully, this useful feature is a part of the upcoming Chromium-based as well. It is available out of box, and won't require you to download them separately.
Microsoft Edge is now a Chromium-based browser with a number of exclusive features like Read Aloud and services tied to Microsoft instead of Google.
The stable version of Microsoft Edge Chromium is available to the public for a while. The browser has already received a few updates, with support for ARM64 devices in Edge Stable 80. Also, Microsoft Edge is still supporting a number of aging Windows versions, including Windows 7, which has recently reached its end of support. Check out Windows Versions Supported by Microsoft Edge Chromium and Edge Chromium latest roadmap. Finally, interested users can download MSI installers for deployment and customization.
For pre-release versions, Microsoft is currently using three channels to deliver updates to Edge Insiders. The Canary channel receives updates daily (except Saturday and Sunday), the Dev channel is getting updates weekly, and the Beta channel is updated every 6 weeks. Microsoft is going to support Edge Chromium on Windows 7, 8.1 and 10, alongside macOS, Linux (coming in the future) and mobile apps on iOS and Android.
