When a writer edits his/her own work, all four errors in grammar and usage listed above, need to be looked for.
a. Ways to replace overused words. A paragraph sounds clumsy when the same words are used too many times in a sentence/paragraph
b. Problems with verb tenses. It is very important to use the same verb tense throughout your written work.
c. Sentences missing commas and periods. If a sentence does not contain commas and periods, it is confusing and ends up being a jumble of words.
<span>d. Misused or missing capitalization.</span>
What exactly is the name of the book?
Answer:
Sherlock Holmes is extremely skilled in logic, deduction, and reason. John Watson is skilled in medical knowledge. Watson gives Holmes the insight of a doctor and Holmes is able to solve puzzles better than Watson is. Watson also provides Holmes a person to explain his theories to, which helps Holmes recognize holes in his theories. As far as I can tell, there are no characteristics that they are lacking that would help them in detective work.
