If you can`t take the time to go back and forth, we`re just saying we`re not aware of any rules or guidelines that can be applied to your situation. Since you know the author, the work and the audience, we recommend that you exercise the best judgment of the author. On August 4, 2005, the FAA issued a final regulation on the new type of second in command (SIC) to align the U.S. Federal Aviation Regulations with international standards for pilot certificates. On September 9, 2005, the FAA reissued the final rule to correct the compliance date. On October 27, 2005, the FAA issued an amendment to the Final Rule to correct errors in the final rules issued on August 4. Bob specifically asked about the use of the term sic. His question was about changing the author`s bold word to a normal font. The rules you quote apply to the clarification of italics. Perhaps the University of South Australia`s style guide allows “[emphasis in original]” to apply to bold.

Thank you for helping me with that. This thread was so informative for me!! . argues that “the characters in these [grunge] fictional texts defy imaginary boundaries.” Since the words were intentionally misspelled, you can include a foreword that points to this fact instead of writing after each incorrect word [sic]. The term [sic] indicates that something contains an error in the language in which it was written. It should not change based on the reader`s native language. In a globalized society, it may be necessary to point out to the reader that some spellings are different, rather than referring to words as “mistakes”. The final rule requires pilots who plan to fly outside the United States. foreign airspace and landing and acting as deputy masters of an aircraft certified to operate with a flight crew of at least two pilots in order to obtain a SIC type pilot rating. I write an essay and use a quote that contains an archaic spelling of a common word. Would I use [sic] on this occasion? Yes. Use [sic] to indicate that something misspelled is intentionally left as it was in the original.

However, it would be clearer to write [sic] in novel if the text is in italics. For example: Gone Width [sic] the wind. It is customary to indicate whether the bold or italicized font in a quotation was included in the original text or added later to highlight a particular point. Let us suppose I want to quote a rule set out in a regulation outside its original context. But the rule, as originally written, was not well written; And to use the rule in the desired context, I need to replace a few terms with parentheses. Also, it is considered a wrong way to use it repeatedly when the same mistake or strange spelling occurs in a document. If the author misspells a word and then spells it the same way in the rest of the text, there is no need to continue pointing out the error unless there is reason to believe that a reader needs to be reminded about it. If not, they may want you to just help your language. Yes, [sic] must be placed after each error. Sometimes a writer [sic] relies on his own words to indicate that the language was deliberately chosen for a particular effect, especially when the writer`s ironic meaning may otherwise be unclear. [14] Bryan A. Garner called this use of sic “ironic” and provided the following example from Fred Rodell`s 1955 book, Nine Men:[2] Subscribe to America`s largest dictionary and get thousands more definitions and advanced searches – ad-free! A third alternative is to follow an error with sic, a comma or colon, “read” and the correct reading in square brackets, as in the following example: We do not consider this use of [sic] to be common.

There is a similar question in the Q&A section of the Chicago Manual of Style: I have a question about using [sic]. Would it be appropriate to use it in the event that someone is quoted and makes a factual error in their statement, rather than a grammatical error? It is especially useful when citing a source that has not been subject to strict editorial controls. It can be, for example, a transcript of an interview or a diary or correspondence: I translate a quote from a newspaper, and the author misspells a person`s name (Alois instead of Alvise). Should I use [sic] here too or just correct the name, since this is a translation? Thank you! The Convention on International Civil Aviation (61 Stat. 1180), adopted on 7. Signed in Chicago, Illinois, in 1944 (the Convention), is an international treaty establishing certain principles and arrangements to ensure that international civil aviation develops safely and in an orderly manner and operates in a sound and economical manner.
