Learning Outcomes $3$ and $4$

Read the message below and in a separate document, create a list of $15$ words or brief phrases that reflect the absence of inclusivity and sensitivity to diverse audiences unfamiliar with relatively contemporary American slang. Next to each specific phrase, put a revision that represents the idea in inclusive language that is sensitive to diverse audiences. The list should be numbered with the exact word or phrase, not the entire sentence, especially since some sentences contain more than one problematic expression, so that I can see the exact phrase that you have determined is problematic. Please do not rewrite the entire message, use highlighting of phrases instead of a list format, or put entire sentences in the list instead of making a list of each specific phrase that is problematic.

Dear Miss or Mrs$.$ Calabrese:

We at Precision Prose know how challenging writing can be$,$ but your employees do not need to sweat the small stuff if you hire our team of writing pros. In fact, we deliver the goods in a timely fashion when we get the ball rolling to help our clients communicate well.

Here is a brief list of what we can do for your tribe:

Checking documents for sentence structure flaws and recommending edits

Identifying errors in punctuation and mechanics

Providing pattern analyses of employees$$ typical screw$-$ups

Guiding every lady and gentleman through one$-$on$-$one tutorials to improve their writing skills

Conducting writing workshops on$-$site or virtually to refresh employees$$ skills

As you can see, we go all in for our clients! We are laid back when we see drafts that would ruffle everyone$$s feathers. Your employees will feel comfortable, too, because we never throw anyone under the bus if his writing skills are scary bad. We help disabled employees, the older members who may not be up on all the new lingo, and foreigners who don$$t know the language enough to write well.

Let's get started!

Sincerely,

Jerry Angler
