Editing
Do you find it difficult to assess whether a text is well composed from a language perspective? Or are you happy with the content, but not so sure about the language? Do you want your text to be structured accessibly and flow nicely? Then it’s a good idea to have a language professional look at your text, especially if it’s something that matters.
Often, texts that have not been written by a language professional contain elementary errors (something as silly as a comma in the wrong place). Or they can be difficult to understand, for example because of woolly language or a messy structure.
Just imagine your website containing a couple of clumsy language errors. Your content may be fine, but your website may inadvertently leave potential customers under the impression that you are less professional than you really are. Therefore, it is a good idea to have important texts assessed and, if necessary, adapted by a professional.
A second pair of eyes can make a big difference for all texts intended for a large audience or on which something depends. For instance:
- Articles for journal publication
- Brochures, leaflets or websites
- Letters to potential customers or important business contacts
