Extra space between sentences
The extra space isn't between the words as this thread mentions which I know are a grammatical error/typo. viewtopic.php?f=72&t=151193&p=1455153&h ... e#p1455153
As an example:
I like reading books.__It is fun.
(I had to put an underscore as the double space would not show in the preview)

Thank you. Sorry to bring this up again, but I have noticed many books do this occasionally. Usually to 'justify' the sentence to fit the space. Similar to how you use the 'justify' option on Microsoft Word. I presume it would be okay in that case?MrsCatInTheHat wrote: ↑28 Mar 2021, 10:35An extra space would be an error.RayRuff wrote: ↑26 Mar 2021, 16:25 If a sentence has an extra space between them would this be considered a grammatical error?

Of course, if it was intentional, that is a different case and should be marked as an error. (Although, would it be a counted or an uncounted error?)
Sorry again! Just want to be sure.
