看到路邊的廣告牌上有錯(cuò)字，你會(huì)怎么辦？大部分人可能會(huì)一笑了之，有些特別認(rèn)真的人就可能會(huì)拍照留證，向有關(guān)負(fù)責(zé)的部門投訴，或者曬在微博等社交媒體平臺(tái)上，供大家批評(píng)指正。
Guerrilla proofreading means marking up a public sign to correct or point out a grammatical error or typo. Guerrilla proofreading does seem to be a popular hobby for some people. They can get quite agitated about apostrophes, invisible hyphens, misspelled words and other such entities. People who enjoy guerrilla proofreading are called guerrilla proofreaders.

Guerrilla proofreading指把一些公共指示牌標(biāo)記下來以糾正或指出其中的語(yǔ)法或拼寫錯(cuò)誤，我們可稱之為“公眾糾錯(cuò)”。有些人的確很喜歡做這種“公眾糾錯(cuò)”。他們看到省略單撇號(hào)、未顯示的連字符、拼錯(cuò)的單詞等這一類錯(cuò)誤時(shí)就會(huì)很生氣。喜歡做“公眾糾錯(cuò)”的人就被稱為“公眾糾錯(cuò)師”。
For example:
Tony is a college English teacher, and he really enjoys so-called guerrilla proofreading in his spare time. Whenever he sees something wrong on a public sign, he would mark it down and write to the government to complain about it.
托尼是一位大學(xué)英語(yǔ)老師，他很喜歡在業(yè)余時(shí)間做所謂的“公眾糾錯(cuò)”。只要他看到公共指示牌上有錯(cuò)，他就會(huì)記下來然后寫信到政府部門進(jìn)行投訴。
