I've never understood what [sic] actually means... I am ignorant

[–] MaggiWuerze@feddit.de 5 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 children)

it means the one citing did not fix any errors in grammar or spelling. it is cited just as it was written or said.

The Latin adverb sic (pronounced [sɪk]; "thus", "just as"; in full: sic erat scriptum, "thus was it written")[1]
