<p>D’une manière générale, il est recommandé aux auteurs de dictionnaires et aux créateurs de mots de franciser, dans la mesure du possible, les mots empruntés, en les adaptant au système graphique du français (ex. : débatteur, musli), et de donner la préférence, lorsque plusieurs formes existent, à celle qui est la plus proche du français (ex. : paélia, taliatelle).</p>
<p>D’une manière générale, il est recommandé aux auteurs de dictionnaires et aux créateurs de mots de préférer, pour l’écriture de mots nouveaux dérivés de noms en -an, le n simple, et, pour les dérivés de noms en -on, le n simple devant i, o, a (ex. : -onologie, -onaire, -onalisme, -onite [ex. : réunionite]).</p>

As a VA, it is part of my job to notice grammar, spelling and the proper use of words. Common mistakes can do serious damage to an otherwise stellar reputation. Think about the image you project and proofread, do some research, look it up…or ask me!</p>
<p><strong>Mash, Press or Push</strong></p>
<p>This is an error that may spark some controversy. It involves the usage of the word mash. In the southern United States, it is customary to hear the word mash used in sentences such as, “Mash the button on the elevator.” However, the best word to use for this sentence would be press. Mash means “to crush,” but press means “to act on with a steady force,” “to bear heavily down on,” or “to squeeze or compress.” Just remember that you mash potatoes, but you press buttons.</p>

Ce verbe n&#8217;a qu&#8217;un sens en français, celui de « rendre complet ce qui était incomplet ». Ainsi, compléter une chose, c&#8217;est lui ajouter ce qui manque, en combler les lacunes.</p>
<p><strong>Exemples :</strong></p>
<p>- Le comité <strong>a complété</strong> sa recherche par un dernier sondage.<strong><br />
</strong>- Ces deux employés <strong>compléteront</strong> nos effectifs.</p>
<p>- Il manque un détail pour <strong>compléter</strong> ton dessin.<strong></strong></p>
<p>- Ce fauteuil <strong>complétera</strong> mon mobilier.<strong></strong></p>
<p>- <strong>Complète</strong> cette somme pour avoir un chiffre rond.<strong></strong></p>
<p>Employé au sens de « remplir » ou de « faire, exécuter, réaliser, accomplir », <em>compléter</em> est un anglicisme.</p>
<p><strong>Exemples fautifs :</strong></p>
<p>- Veuillez <strong>compléter</strong> le formulaire ci-joint.</p>
<p>- Il a <strong>complété</strong> ses études au collège de Montréal.</p>
<p>- Le nouveau projet devrait être <strong>complété</strong> en moins de deux ans.<strong></strong></p>
<p>- L&#8217;accord entre les deux parties sera <strong>complété</strong> le mois prochain.</p>
<p>- La Terre <strong>complète</strong> une révolution sur elle-même en 24 heures.</p>
<p><strong> </strong><strong>On écrira plutôt, par exemple : </strong></p>
<p>- Veuillez <strong>remplir</strong> le formulaire ci-joint.</p>
<p>- Il <strong>a fait</strong> ses études au collège de Montréal.</p>
<p>- Le nouveau projet devrait être <strong>exécuté</strong> en moins de deux ans.</p>
<p>- L&#8217;accord entre les deux parties <strong>sera</strong> <strong>conclu</strong> le mois prochain.<strong></strong></p>
<p>- La Terre <strong>accomplit</strong> une révolution sur elle-même en 24 heures.<strong></strong></p>

I used to be afraid to do this. I felt guilty, I was worried that my clients would feel cheated or think that I was asking for too much. I would carefully craft my message and add reasons, examples, and proof to back me up. I don’t do this anymore. I work hard; I offer a professional service with a smile. I am resourceful, interested and dedicated. I go the extra mile. I make sure to keep up with technology. I take classes, attend meetings and brainstorm with my colleagues so my clients get the very best I can offer.</p>
<p>I don’t drastically raise my rates. I take into account the cost of living, taxes and experience.</p>
<p>I know that the clients who appreciate my work won’t have a problem with this.</p>
<p>And I also know that I’m worth it.</p>
<p>***</p>
<p>Une autre année qui débute et c’est le temps d’ajuster mon taux horaire. Avant, j’avais peur de le faire. Je me sentais coupable, j’étais inquiète que mes clients se sentent floués ou qu’ils pensent que j’en demande trop. J’agonisais sur la rédaction de mon avis d’ajustement et j’ajoutais des justifications, des exemples, des preuves pour soutenir ma démarche. Je ne fais plus cela. Je travaille fort, j’offre un service professionnel avec le sourire. Je suis pleine de ressources, je suis intéressée et je suis dévouée. Je n’ai pas peur d’en donner un peu plus que le client demande. Je m’efforce d’être à jour au niveau de la technologie. Je fais des formations, je participe à des réunions, j’échange avec mes collègues afin de pouvoir offrir le meilleur de moi à mes clients.</p>
<p>Je n’augmente pas mon taux de façon drastique. Je prends en considération le coût de la vie, les taxes et l’expérience.</p>

As a VA, it is part of my job to notice grammar, spelling and the proper use of words. Common mistakes can do serious damage to an otherwise stellar reputation. Think about the image you project and proofread, do some research, look it up…or ask me!</p>
<p><strong>Literally/Figuratively</strong></p>
<p>Have you ever heard someone say something like the following?</p>
<p>I was so scared that I <strong>literally</strong> jumped out of my skin.</p>
<p>I was so cold after two hours in the snow that I <strong>literally</strong> froze to death.</p>
<p>Upon hearing a statement like one of these, I think, “Really? You literally jumped out of your skin?” Or, “You actually froze to death, but you’re still alive to talk about it?”</p>
<p>It’s common to hear figures of speech (like idioms or hyperboles) used for emphasis, just as “jumped out of my skin” is used to express extreme fright. Such expressions are not intended to be interpreted as is, which is why they are considered figurative. In contrast, when something is literal, it is real or actual. Obviously, it is impossible to jump out of one’s skin, so this expression is figurative, not literal. The use of <em>literally</em> in such an expression is incorrect or, at best, unnecessary.</p>
<p>It could be argued that <em>literally</em> is used with figures of speech for the purpose of exaggeration or emphasis; that is, the person including <em>literally</em> is doing so purposefully to extend the hyperbole. But it is generally understood that figures of speech (as used in the examples above) are for emphasis, often involve some exaggeration, and not intended to be taken seriously. To include the word <em>literally</em> for further exaggeration or emphasis is, in my opinion, verbal overkill.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><a href="http://matamich.files.wordpress.com/2011/11/goodgrammarhot.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-544" title="GoodGrammarHot" src="http://matamich.files.wordpress.com/2011/11/goodgrammarhot.jpg?w=150&#038;h=150" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a>Bad Badly</strong></p>
<p>Do you feel <em>bad</em> or <em>badly</em>?</p>
<p>Should you want something <em>bad </em>or <em>badly</em>?</p>
<p>Whether to use <em>bad</em> or <em>badly </em>can be determined by identifying the type of verb in the sentence and understanding how <em>bad</em> and <em>badly</em> differ as parts of speech.</p>
<p><em>Bad</em> is an adjective, so it describes a noun or pronoun. <em>Badly </em>is an adverb so, like all adverbs, it describes a verb, adjective, or another adverb.</p>
<p>Most verbs perform action, but linking verbs are different: they are not performing an action, but are connecting the subject with another word in the sentence. The word <em>feel</em>, when it refers to emotions, serves as a linking verb that connects the subject (always a noun or pronoun) of the sentence with the adjective that follows the verb. When using the verb <em>feel </em>in referring to an emotion or state of mind, always follow it with the adjective <em>bad</em>.<br />
In other cases when an action verb is used (like the verb <em>want</em>), use the adverb <em>badly</em>:</p>
<p>He feels <strong>bad</strong> that he forgot his mother’s birthday.</p>

<p><strong>Alter Altar</strong></p>
<p><em>Alter</em> and <em>altar</em> can be easily confused because of their one-letter spelling difference. Usually writers know which meaning they want to convey, but they can’t remember which spelling goes with which word.</p>
<p><em>Alter</em> (with an “e”) is to change or make something different. <em>Altar</em> (with an “a”) has the religious meaning of a place of sacrifice or center of worship.</p>
<p>Here’s a tip for remembering the difference between the two:</p>
<p><em>Alter</em> is an action, so it requires effort; <em>effort</em> is a word that starts with the letter “e”.</p>
