the most easiest errors are the spellings and crossing out the words. the hardest thing is when you have to either change the punction or the seeing the words are right.

Kassie - one of the common errors we've seen in the editing passage has been committed in your post:-)
"the most easiest" - what needs to be crossed out?

It's easy to recognize errors like using the wrong words. If you were talking about the future but you use a word that is telling about something that happened in the past, that's an easy mistake to spot. The most difficult one to spot is Punctuation errors, sometimes I'm just not sure where I need to change it or add it.

the most easiest mistakes to find are miss uses of words ex."what did you did?", also careless spelling mistakes miss use of periods, comas,question marks,ect. The hardest to find is when to put in the corect punction.

H.W:Post to the blog:
The easiest error to regconize
is the spellings if they are easy
words. If they are hard words that
I don't know, then I just end up
skipping it. Another easy error is
the capitalization. An error that
I have a hard time with is the
future and past tenses.

The easiest errors you can find in passages are the spelling errors. The hardest error to find is the punctuation errors because I sometimes think "should I take that out or add it?"

Natalia said...

The easiest errors for me are when they are missing the right words and they are changed from present to past. I also think punctuation is easy to fix, and careless/careless mistakes.

for me the easiest mistakes to recognize are the ones like "more strongest" or "most easiest" or the ones with misplaced quotations or the ones with spelling errors. the hardest mistakes to realize are the mistakes with the commas.

The easiest errors for me to recognize are errors when people mis-use words, like "most greatest." Those are the easiest mistakes for me to find because they make the sentence sound so wrong when you read it. The hardest mistakes for me to find would either be spelling errors like nobdy instead of nobody or punctuation errors like a missing exclamation point or question mark. The reason that spelling errors are hard for me to find is because when I am reading a sentence quikly, I don't check for spelling. The reason that grammatical errors are hard for me to find is because when I read the sentence aloud to myself, it usually sounds the same. I will be sure to watch out for these types of errors on my ELA test!

I am good at catching spelling errors and finding sentences with the incorrect tense.
Errors that I find hard to catch are the ones when inserting commas in the passage.

Vickii hehhe=] said...

I think the easiest errors to notice are words that aren't capitalized. I think that in the sentence they stand out. I also think that the easiest errors to notice are sentences that have the wrong puncuation.

I think that the easiest part of editing is when things are said such as:
the MOST EASIEST
or
the MOST COOLEST

Another easy thing to fix is putting apostrophes in words.

StACEy BBy [: said...

I agree with Vicky. I think that the easiest errors to notice are when the first letter of a new sentence isn't capitalized which means the use of grammer isn't proper.

Joanna Pantelides said...

The easiest errors to recognize, are spelling mistakes and run on sentences.Grammatical errors are a little more difficult to recongize.

yusef said...

The easiest errors to catch are mistakes in spelling and capitalization. When you use the wrong tense, like past, present or future.

The hardest errors to catch are punctuation and run on sentences.

sorry for the lateness of this post, i didn't check the blog.

the most easy errors to find for me are capitalization and period misplacing. the hardest ones for me to identify are punctuation such as commas and " " those. i forgot what they were called. it's also really hard to identify are grammar because sometimes they make sense in your head even though they really don't on the paper.

mike ortiz said...

The most easiest errors that I can find are lowercase letters that should be changed to upper case letters. The hardest errors that I can find are adding commas in sentences.

Sorry this homework make-up came in so late, I tried emailng it but I dont think it went through.

The easiest errors are those of spelling. When something is mispelled, its easy to catch, especially if it sounds odd when you are reading it. A hard mistake is when there are quootes and you have to decide where to put the punctuation.

Evan Rodriguez said...

The easiest errors to recognize are spelling mistakes or when I type a word twice in a row. The hardest to recognize are when I forget to transition to a new paragraph or make mistakes in punctuation.
