When the residents were invited to suggest uses for the flat roof, a garden seemed the obvious choice. However, the engineer's report made it clear that large containers of soil would be too heavy. Some neighbors felt the proposal had been dismissed without a proper discussion, while others were relieved that safety had come first. At the next meeting, we agreed to separate the idea from the original design. Smaller plants could be placed along the edges, provided access to the roof remained clear. I wouldn't have supported the revised plan if it had simply ignored the concerns raised earlier. As it stood, though, it offered a way forward without pretending that every difficulty had disappeared. The committee will review the arrangement after the summer, when we have a better sense of how people use the space.
- the engineers report → the engineer's report
«the engineer's report»: O relatório ou registo pertence a um só referente; o possessivo singular escreve-se com ’s.
- to heavy → too heavy
«too heavy»: Too exprime excesso antes do adjetivo; to não tem essa função.
- had been dismiss → had been dismissed
«had been dismissed»: Nesta passiva, been é seguido do particípio terminado em -ed, não da forma base.
- the roofs remained clear → the roof remained clear
«the roof remained clear»: Fala-se de um só terraço; roof é singular e remained mantém-se no passado.
- wouldnt have supported → wouldn't have supported
«wouldn't have supported»: O apóstrofo assinala as letras omitidas na contração; retirá-lo altera a grafia.
- a better sence → a better sense
«a better sense»: Sense significa perceção ou compreensão; escreve-se com s, não c, nessa posição.
Compara separadamente palavras ouvidas e ortografia. Não há nota automática. Aceita-se outra pontuação normativa que conserve relações e sentido; mudar uma vírgula não implica uma palavra mal ouvida. Revê depois maiúsculas e diacríticos com o modelo.
Mantém as palavras, a ordem, os artigos, as preposições e as terminações. Não substituas por sinónimos nem desenvolvas contrações. As seis notas são exemplos de revisão: compara o texto inteiro, não apenas essas seis zonas. Incluem-se transcrições completas alternativas em variantes_aceptadas: são variantes de escrita da mesma mensagem, não sinónimos.
Apóstrofos retos e curvos são equivalentes; mantém contrações e possessivos.
