What do our professional editing and proofreading services include?
The purpose of proofreading is quite simple: to eliminate typos and grammatical errors, while adding a bit of a native speaker´s expertise. This is usually referred to as monolingual proofreading, meaning that the proofreader has no insight into the source content.
On the other hand, revision – often also referred to as editing – is bilingual proofreading, i.e. a reviser checks the translated content against the source document. Here, the linguist knows both languages and is perfectly capable of making content and style-related corrections.
