Checking Common Errors
Checking common errors is a critical step to ensure that grammatical, spelling,

and writing style errors are avoided in the final writing. These errors can
disrupt the reader and undermine the credibility of the writer.

Common Errors Checked:
• Grammar Errors: Such as subject-verb agreement errors, incorrect

pronoun usage, or errors in sentence construction.

• Spelling Errors: Including errors in spelling words, misuse of
punctuation, or inconsistent writing.

• Writing Style Errors: Such as the use of inappropriate phrases or
idioms, or inconsistency with the chosen writing style.

• Quotation and Reference Errors: Incorrect formatting or citation of

sources.

Process of Checking Common Errors:

• Manual Inspection: Carefully reread the writing and examine each

sentence to identify errors.
• Use of Tools: Utilize tools such as grammar and spell-checking

software in word processing programs.

• Consultation with Others: Seek feedback from others or a professional
editor to help identify overlooked errors.

By applying editing and revision techniques and meticulously checking for
common errors, writers can produce higher-quality, clearer, and more

easily understandable writing.
