Essay On Proof Reading And Revision

Proofreading, editing, and revision are the important tools for the evaluation of a write-up. While writing it is usual to commit mistakes but if they are remaining uncorrected then the write-up could fail to accomplish the goal. In order to communicate the idea through writing, these three processes must be undertaken after finishing the writing. Editing involves the elimination of unnecessary information in writing. Moreover, editing is the process to analyze the sentences concepts whether the idea is being properly conveyed or not. Revision is going through the complete writing by reading it aloud and evaluating each word critically. The spelling errors, punctuation mistakes, subject-verb relation in a sentence and use of repeated words are pointed out. These mistakes are corrected by proofreading. However, proofreading fails to make the writings error free because the writer reads the material for proofreading without focus and concentration. Therefore, it is recommended to let some other person read the write-up and carry out critical analysis.
