Definition: A person who edits or makes changes to documents.
Alright class, settle down and let’s take a look!
You’ve got the dictionary definition, that’s a great start, it’s true! “A person who edits or makes changes to documents,” it says for you.
But let's break that down with a little rhyme, you see,
An
editor
is someone skilled and free –
They look at words, both big and small,
To make sure everything’s standing tall!
Think of a book before it hits the shelf,
An editor helps to polish it itself.
They check for errors, spelling mistakes too,
And adjust the flow, making it clear and new.
They might change sentences, rearrange with glee,
To make sure your writing is perfect, you agree?
So, an editor’s job is quite a treat,
To refine and shape words, perfectly neat!
Does that explanation help you understand the role? Do you have any questions about what we've discussed?
