Words
Believe me, I have a hard time putting a sentence together sometimes but, because it's my job, I try my best. When I was in college and, actually, when I started working at the newspaper, I was taught to read my stories out loud to make sure they made sense. Now, because it's my job to read them out loud, that's a lot easier to do ... and it makes my job a lot easier. Anyway, as I was reading a story in the newspaper about a local festival that is requiring people to buy tickets to be used at food booths, I could pretty much guarantee that this newspaper writer did not read this sentence out loud:
"Tickets will be used to purchase food instead of cash."
