Copy-editing and proof-reading

Copy-editing / proof-reading: Why?

Language is alive and constantly evolving. Despite all changes, and for the sake of the messages to be transmitted, careful handling of the speech – and of written words in particular – is important. And, equally significant: Written words and their quality give away a lot about their creator.

Copy-editing / proof-reading: Looking for what?

Limited vocabulary and constant repetitions?
Never mind?
Upper and lower case?
Who cares?
Correct punctuation?
Not important?
Syntax, comprehensibility and red line?
No-one notices?

I am convinced: This does matter! Language is so rich, so diverse, so colourful – and at the same time so precise, if used properly. I am happy to accompany you along the way!

Copy-editing / proof-reading: Also for theses and dissertations?

  • Are you a student and currently writing or planning to write a term paper, your bachelor or diploma thesis, or your dissertation?
  • Are you creating or running a website for your business / your products / your organisation in the internet?
  • Are you printing broadsheets, leaflets, annual reports, studies and operating manuals in order to address your customers effectively?

In all these publications, the accumulation of mistakes will quickly lead to a (mis-)conception: Half-hearted, unattractive, inaccurate – and if the text already looks like that…
