Clarification re "Proofreaders Wanted"

Re the Proofreaders Wanted post, Mark Lewis would like to offer this clarification:


'ALL I want is someone to check the pinyin against the Soc pinyin Wt. VERY easy. I think most think it's difficult. BUT it is VERY easy. The machine puts the English words in or I ask Babel or my students. I don't want anyone to translate it or even check the Chinese. Time: about 2 hours or less.'

Proofreaders Wanted

Mark Lewis is looking for proofreaders to help with the various "3-line" material he produces. I can confirm from personal experience that while users of the material will obviously benefit, any who help out will also benefit themselves from the Chinese practice and research they will be doing. It would be up to you to decide how much or how little time you would be able to contribute to this.
