Even after googling that I don't understand what it means either.I still don’t know what <sic> meansI’m hoping someone will enlighten me!! I’m not very “woke”
sic is if you are quoting someone or something and say there is a mistake/odd bit in it you put that to show that it’s their mistake, not yours. I think it means something like ‘as it was written’ from Latin (not sure on that).I still don’t know what <sic> meansI’m hoping someone will enlighten me!! I’m not very “woke”
Ha! I know that one- woop! It means that if, for example, a journalist is quoting someone word for word, that is clear to the reader. So if you had written on Twitter, say, “I can’t bare that man.” (note that you had used the wrong ‘bare’, as it should have been ‘bear’). If I was then writing an article about you and what you had posted I’d write - LittlemissM was overheard in a restaurant saying ‘I can’t bare that man (sic)’.I still don’t know what <sic> meansI’m hoping someone will enlighten me!!

The dogs and cats thing is so cuteMy Nan told me that tucking my hair behind my ears would make them stick out, even just one strand of hair would be enough to do it she said! I also believed that all dogs were boys and all cats were girls
We tell our kids this. “Did you do this?! Right I’m checking the cameras”. Doesn’t work as well now with the older two as they’re too old to fall for itThe illuminati conspiracy.
I still somewhat believe the very basic principles of the higher ups in power but not the new modern day devil-worshipping-evil baby-blood-sacrifice-illuminati stuff
My sibling told me my parents had cameras around our house to make sure we behave when they're out and I believed it for the longest time - my parents played in to this lie as well! Still to this day, I'm a teeeeeeny tiny bit paranoid
Thank you!Ha! I know that one- woop! It means that if, for example, a journalist is quoting someone word for word, that is clear to the reader. So if you had written on Twitter, say, “I can’t bare that man.” (note that you had used the wrong ‘bare’, as it should have been ‘bear’). If I was then writing an article about you and what you had posted I’d write - LittlemissM was overheard in a restaurant saying ‘I can’t bare that man (sic)’.
Basically I’m letting readers know that it’s you with the shit grammar and doesn’t know the difference between bare and bear, not me, but because it’s a direct quote I haven’t corrected it.
