Proofreading

Proofreading

In our Middle Eastern language proofreading process to ensure the final work is not only linguistically correct, but stylistically acceptable,  we run a QA check by software such as Trados or MemoQ to find automatic inconstancies, punctuation issues and to detect untranslated texts.

Also our proofreaders who are assigned to projects in a language such as Pashto or Arabic, will try to check if country standards are closely followed and translation has a natural flow and  word for word translation is avoided.

Proofreading is a critical part of the writing process that involves English experts scrutinizing a written document in order to identify and rectify grammar, punctuation, spelling and vocabulary errors. Good writing always involves modification and revision, and proofreading is a fundamental part of this process. Proofreaders generally have one main objective: to ensure that a written document is absolutely perfect in terms of grammar and vocabulary.

Proofreading

In order to do this, they verify accuracy in the following areas:

  • Sentence structure
  • Grammar
  • Punctuation
  • Spelling
  • Capitalization
  • Consistency
  • Numbers
  • Formatting

Proofreading is the very last step in the writing process. However, just because it comes last, does not mean that it is the least important. Proofreading ensures that the document is completely free of errors and polished to a high standard. Professional proofreaders take their roles very seriously. They will ensure your work is free from all language errors (in grammar, punctuation, spelling and typography) and has an improved style, clarity, sentence structure and coherence.

Apart from demonstrating their qualifications and experience, all of our proofreaders have to pass a tough entry assessment. we are extremely selective when hiring editors. All of our editors are native speakers. We also monitor the work of our proofreaders on a regular basis. The advantage of our service over other proofreading services and individual proofreaders is that our proofreaders are fully approved and trusted. We guarantee an effective service and offer you 100% satisfaction. Even the most eagle-eyed proofreader sometimes misses a mistake, especially misspelled words or commonly confused word pairs such as lose/loose and affect/effect, our proofreaders spots words that are spelled correctly but used in the wrong context. Our proofreaders add the right finishing touch so that your writing is the very best it can be.
