“I am a bit in the war” Roland Geraerts 30 July 2012
Check, mate! • Use a spelling checker!
Common errors • its versus it's • It's is a contraction for it is or it has. Its is a possessive pronoun, meaning, of it or belonging to it. • abbreviations • Don't use abbreviations like min (minimum), wrt (with respect to), etc. ;-) • dashes • Use dashes appropriately, e.g. multi-core, planning-based, imposter-based, non-optimal, non-convex, collision-free configurations. • Apostrophes • Don't write: Papers discussion's points.
Common errors • Dunglish • "I am a bit in the war" (from the Dutch Ik ben een beetje in de war, translates as "I am a little bit confused") • Just avoid it, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunglish. I won't see these mistakes through my fingers!
Common errors: Punctuation • Dutch puts a comma after restrictive relative clauses; hence mistakes like: • The concern they show, is by no means exaggerated. • Commas may be used between unlinked clauses: • This is somewhat surprising, as they are forbidden in Dutch too, they nevertheless occur regularly. • Abbreviations entirely in lower case or ending in lower case are normally followed by periods: • Mr. and Mrs. • i.e.
Interrogative and negative structures • Dutch has no do-support • What mean you? • Thank you, I smoke not • Preposition-stranding in questions is unknown in Dutch. • The sentence Who are you talking to? is wrong. • To whom are you talking? • Dutch uses interrogative adverbials beginning with the equivalent of where to ask question about things. • Where do you need that for?
