Editing written work requires an auditory perspective. The process of reading a manuscript aloud reveals flaws and awkward sentence structures that are often missed during silent reading. This approach emphasizes that true editing is achieved through pronunciation and vocal delivery, as many issues only become apparent when spoken. While technical steps in editing, such as moving through proof stages and making minor adjustments, are necessary, the most significant insights often arise from verbalizing the text. This method can lead to substantial edits, addressing mistakes missed by others and highlighting areas for improvement in clarity and flow.
