Should I've written [sic] next to it?

[–] zzx@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

I've never understood what [sic] actually means... I am ignorant

[–] MaggiWuerze@feddit.de 5 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

it means the one citing did not fix any errors in grammar or spelling. it is cited just as it was written or said.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sic

The Latin adverb sic (pronounced [sɪk]; "thus", "just as"; in full: sic erat scriptum, "thus was it written")[1]
