Russian grammar checker with 690+ rules for professional NLP quality. Based on ЕГЭ 2025 analysis, НКРЯ corpus data, and authoritative Russian sources.

## Features

- **Case Agreement** - Validates adjective-noun, numeral-noun gender/case/number agreement
- **Verb Aspect** - Context-aware perfective/imperfective aspect checking
- **Particle Usage** - Validates particles (же, ли, бы, etc.)
- **Preposition + Case** - Checks correct case after prepositions (в/на + Acc/Loc)
- **Register Consistency** - Detects mixing formal (вы) and informal (ты)

## Installation

```bash
pip install mawo-grammar
```

## Quick Start

```python
from mawo_grammar import RussianGrammarChecker

checker = RussianGrammarChecker()

# Check text
text = "красивая дом"
errors = checker.check(text)

for error in errors:
    print(f"{error.description} at {error.location}")
    print(f"Suggestion: {error.suggestion}")
```

## Advanced Usage

### Rule-based checking

```python
# Specific rules
errors = checker.check(text, rules=[
    'case_agreement',      # Adjective-noun agreement
    'aspect_usage',        # Verb aspect validation
    'particle_usage',      # Particle correctness
    'register',           # ты/вы consistency
])

# With morphology context
from mawo_pymorphy3 import create_analyzer

morph = create_analyzer()
errors = checker.check_with_morphology(text, morph)
```

### Custom rules

```python
from mawo_grammar import Rule, GrammarError

@checker.add_rule(category='style', severity='minor')
def no_bureaucratese(text: str) -> list[GrammarError]:
    """Detect канцелярит."""
    errors = []
    if 'в связи с вышеизложенным' in text:
        errors.append(GrammarError(
            type='bureaucratese',
            location=(0, len(text)),
            description='Avoid bureaucratic language',
            suggestion='Use simpler wording'
        ))
    return errors
```

### Error objects

```python
for error in errors:
    print(error.type)           # 'case_agreement'
    print(error.location)       # (0, 14)
    print(error.severity)       # 'major'
    print(error.description)    # 'Adjective-noun gender mismatch'
    print(error.suggestion)     # 'красивый дом'
    print(error.rule_id)        # 'ADJ_NOUN_GENDER_AGREEMENT'
    print(error.confidence)     # 0.98
    print(error.morphology)     # Morphological context
