BUSA-1098 Introduction to Business Analysis Page 4 of 6 Grammar, Spelling, Punctuation, and Format Writing Checklist The following list will help guide you in writing documents for the Industry Project Term, and beyond. Before submitting your documents for instructor feedback, make sure everyone on your team has proofed the documents and made the required changes. The first indication of errors will be the presence of RED and BLUE squiggly lines in your documents. Use programs/ apps such as Microsoft Word Spelling and Grammar Check, or Grammarly to proof your work. But remember these apps don’t always find all errors. Proof your work even after you have run it through a Grammar Check program. This list is not a comprehensive one, but it will help you in writing more professional documents for your clients. 1. Spelling: choose British English or American English format. No flip flopping. Eg. colour, neighbour (British English) versus color, neighbor (American English) analyse (British English) vs. analyze (American English) It doesn’t matter what format you use just as long as your spelling is consistent throughout your documents. 2. Spelling: Know the difference and choose correctly: there, their, there; two, to, too; your, you’re. Incorrect: recieve (NOTE THE SQUIGGLY RED LINE); Correct: receive (The general rule is ‘i’ before ‘e’ except after ‘c’). 3. Spacing: Remove extra spaces between words. Incorrect: I like dogs. Correct: I like dogs. 4. Use Capital letters in proper nouns and titles. Eg. of a Proper Noun: London, England; Example of a title: How to Code with Python. Also, make sure ‘I’ is capitalized. Incorrect: i like dogs. Correct: I like dogs. 5. Punctuation: Use proper punctuation throughout sentences, statements, and paragraphs. Remember that a run-on sentence is literally a sentence that seems to go on and on and on. If you’re not sure on how to properly use a semicolon, then don’t. It’s often better BUSA-1098 Introduction to Business Analysis Page 5 of 6 to write 2 complete and separate sentences. If you’re not sure, then research how to use different types of punctuation properly. 6. Sentence Structure: Use a combination of sentence structures to allow for a better flowing paragraph i.e simple, compound, complex (You were taught this in your Communication Class in Term 1). 7. Definite article ‘the’: be careful not to overuse this word in your writing. It’s not needed as much as you may think. 8. Verbs and Verb Tenses: Make sure there is consistency in your writing in sentences, statements, and paragraphs. If you start a paragraph with the use of a past tense verb related to your subject, finish the paragraph using past tense verbs related to the paragraph subject. 9. Lists: Remember the rules. This will especially apply to section statements in your documents. Each statement should begin with the same part of speech i.e. a noun, or a verb in the same verb tense form. For Example: We need to proof our documents to ensure: a. Sentences are written properly b. Words are spelled correctly c. Font style is consistent In the above list, all statements begin with a noun. An example of an incorrect list of statements would be: We need to proof our documents to ensure: a. We are writing sentences properly b. Spelling is correct c. Consistent use of font style (...where statement ‘a’ begins with a pronoun, ‘b’ with a noun, and ‘c’ with an adverb). 10. Wordiness: Check your sentences and statements for any unnecessary words. If you remove a word or words from a sentence and it still makes sense, you’re usually good to go. BUSA-1098 Introduction to Business Analysis Page 6 of 6 11. Formatting and line spacing: USE THIS DOCUMENT TO GUIDE YOU!! If using a numbering system, all numbers should line up under each other. All sentences and statements should line up under each other. The same line spacing should be used between statements. 12. Font Style, Colour, and Size: Be sure to use the same font style throughout your documents. Times New Roman and Arial are typical font styles you will see used in professional documents. In general, use font size 12 to 14 for Section Titles, and font size 11 to 12 for section information. DOCUMENTS SHOULD BE WRITTEN IN BLACK OR DARK BLUE INK 13. Page Numbering: Be sure that your pages are numbered. Generally, your title page will not have a number. You can choose to number the page after the title page as 1 or 2. Be sure that page numbers in the Table of Contents match the page numbers on each page of your document. If you choose a numbering system such as 1 of 12, 2 of 12, etc., please ensure that your last page is listed as 12 of 12. There should be no page number on your Title Page. Your Table of Contents can start as page 1 or page 2. Source: RRC ACE Communications Curriculum
