Are these sentences correct?
1) I corrected his essay for grammar.
2) I corrected his essay for grammatical errors.
3) I corrected his essay for grammaticality.
If they are, what does 'for' mean in them?
Could you give examples of 'for' being used in this manner?
I understand the sentences but I have looked in the AHD but don't think I've found a meaning that really corresponds to this usage.
