Proofreader wanted
Perhaps the proofreader was a spellcheck program. "Immanent" is actually a word, as are "imminent" and "eminent" of course. See eminent/imminent/immanent. Sadly, both errors pale in comparison to the erosion of literacy that is commonly seen these days in emails and internet posts. I suspect that over-reliance on spellcheckers is to blame in some cases, but only in a minority of them. Regards, -- Al |
Don't get me started on the editing failures in the Hartford Courant, our local daily newspaper, which has more misspellings and grammatical errors that you can count on your fingers and toes in each edition. It appears that their money woes are so severe, they have dispensed with editors altogether. |
