Find the Error 57
(Extract adapted from a leaflet advertising job vacancies
at a large provincial theatre)
What kind of mistake do you see? (Choose one:)
- apostrophes
- articles
- doesn't make sense
- punctuation
- singular / plural
- spelling
Answer: spelling
The spelling mistake in this example can be found on the last line:
'managment' should be spelled 'management'. Since any spellchecker would
have highlighted this error, it's hard to understand how it slipped through the
net and ended up published in the final version of the advertisement.
