Answer: word, pronunciation, definition, etymology
.
Explanation:
- A dictionary entry provides additional information about a word and usually includes its pronunciation, definition and origin (etymology).
- A word is followed by its phonetic transcription, which shows us how to correctly pronounce it. This is quite useful, especially for second language learners.
- Word definition explains its meaning in different contexts.
- Etymology is the study of word origin. It deals with the development of a particular word through history.
In organizing a written speech, first there should be an organization of thoughts. The organization of thoughts should have a keyword outlines in order for us to determine the focus of the speech and outline the thoughts through the skeleton outline. Lastly, if there is a need for this written speech to be delivered, note cards could be an important tool.
I've always been told check for <em>spelling errors </em>first, which technically you are beginning the process of proofreading.
Next, I've been told to look for usage errors, which means, did you use the word in the correct context.
Then I believe you look for grammar mistakes, which includes subject verb agreements, fragments, punctuation, and can include style of the paper, which I believe looks at the sentence variety.
Hopefully this helped and good luck.
