What do you call the person who checks a manuscript for spelling and grammar errors?

The person who checks a manuscript for spelling and grammar errors is called a proofreader. Proofreading is a critical step in the editing process to ensure the accuracy and clarity of written content. Proofreaders meticulously review text for errors in spelling, grammar, punctuation, and formatting to maintain the overall quality of the manuscript.


Which proofreading mark would you use to insert a missing letter word or punctuation mark?

The proofreading mark used for an insertion is basically a v shape or an inverted caret; when written, you use the caret point like an arrow point to indicate where the insertion should go, ideally in a different color than the normal text to call attention to it. Then, at the wide point of the caret you write what needs to be inserted. If it is too long to write at that point, you draw a line to the margin and add the insertion text there.

Why do you put a full stop after the word approx?

Oh, what a happy little question! You put a full stop after the word "approx" to indicate that it's an abbreviation for "approximately." It helps to show that the word has been shortened and gives a sense of completion to the abbreviation. Just a little punctuation detail to bring balance and harmony to your writing!
