Default In Word, the grammer check feature does not find missing periods

While recently typing a document I noticed that the grammer check was not
detecting missed punctuation - such as a missing period at the end of a
sentence. The spell check feature seems to work fine. I have tried
uninstalling and reinstalling Word, with no results.

Word can't check "grammer". In Word 2002 or 2003, click on Tools
| Options | Spelling & Grammar | check the "Check grammar as you
type" and "Check grammar with spelling" boxes and uncheck the
"Hide grammatical errors in this document" box | Settings | check
the "Punctuation" box | OK | OK.

How could a computer program know when a sentence has ended?
