@WriteSenseMedia Absolutely! It’s only good for journal articles, though.

@Dottyeyes I was just looking it up yesterday and thought the same thing! There should be a mnemonic for that. Or I need it on a sticky note. I fear that soon no one will care anymore, and “comprised of” will become the norm. 😬

@JenMededit Same here. It’s so satisfying!

[Cindy @cindy_reeh]

@FriendlyAshley @The_GrammarGeek Same concern here—but not for lack of experience, just lack of familiarity with that word. I usually say “remove italics” or “remove boldface” but never “roman.”

@ArrantPedantry I always thought “although” was preferred in more formal writing. I picked that up that from Garner’s Modern English Usage and it has stuck with me!

@HelenChuMD Thank you, Dr. Chu!

@KyraFreestar Totally! I had to make this correction just a few days ago. Also: biannually and biennially

@CT_Bergstrom @EricAnicich @AdamGalinsky As a copy editor, I see jargon and overuse of insider lingo often. It’s my job to weed it out and make the writing coherent.

@GramrgednAngel WHO prefers to call itself just “WHO” and not “the WHO” and that’s how most everyone in the global health industry refers to it. I honestly never thought to question why. *cringe* 😂

@WaHealthSec @GovInslee Large outbreaks are happening in several long-term care facilities across WA. Why isn’t widespread testing being done in these facilities? Please issue guidelines. A friend’s father is in quarantine at one of these facilities with no testing in sight.

@christykarras We’re part of an unfortunate yet exclusive club. Happy to create some good out of it by participating in research. 👍

@IvaCheung Thanks! It’s been over three weeks now. Took a while for the cough to go away.

@KyraFreestar How interesting! Right at the crossover.

[Cindy @cindy_reeh]

@EightArmsEdits Thank you! I agree 100%.

[Cindy @cindy_reeh]

@roopabanerjee Thank you. I agree! But wanted to hear what others thought.

[Cindy @cindy_reeh]

@bethjusino Sweet! That would be amazing. We shall see...
