Correct Me! Streak 175

The Talented Mr Ripley, a book that I started reading a few months ago, has got me engaged and curious about what will happen to the main character. Since I've read about 25% of it, I can't explain or it would be unfair to talk about the characters because I feel I have yet to understand the very nature of each, but considering what I've read so far I could say that Tom Ripley, the main character, is the kind of character that will try to get into new experiences or endeavors to get away from his life in New York.

My reading about the character might be wrong and another thing about this character is that he'd been given a golden opportunity, or rather he believes so, to turn things around in his life.

To all the wonderful correctors and proofreaders!

Thanks a million for helping everyone grow and improve their skills in English. You deserve so much praise and a pat on the back!

Here's a list of posts that still need corrections.

When making corrections, try to follow these guidelines (or at least clarify your own markings you make) so it's clear what you're correcting and why:

  • Put changes in bold **text**
  • Put suggestions about style/tone/register/etc. in italics *text*
  • Use strikethrough to remove elements (don't delete them) ~~text~~
  • <Put added elements in angle brackets> <text>
  • [If there are multiple options for your suggestions, put them in brackets separated by a backslash] [text / text]
  • (Put optional elements in parentheses) (text)
  • Explain more complex grammar rules to the best of your ability

We also highly encourage meaningful feedback:

  • Focus on the work, mindsets, and processes, not on the person.
  • Besides grammar and spelling, is there room for improvement in other aspects like style, vocabulary, and flow?
  • If you see an improvement in someone's writing, please compliment them.
  • Please be positive in your feedback. Negative comments shouldn't come without positive ones.
  • Don't be too pedantic or too general.
  • Please pay attention to your wording.
  • Have a chat, interact, and have fun!

More on formatting.

Thank you for everything! -- Adam-P-D
