editors Explanation: Editing often includes reviewing, correcting and proofreading. In fact, there is a blurry line between editing and proofreading. It doesn't make sense that the proofreaders would be mentioned and not the editors. http://www.wordreference.com/es/en/translation.asp?spen=corr... |
