Yeah I thought I found a typo like this when I was a lot younger but my dumb ah didn’t realize that the character continued speaking in the next paragraph so there wasn’t a quotation needed.
@@The14thCapybaraWait, what's interesting is that I'm reading a book right now that does the exact opposite: when the character is speaking and the paragraph changes, there will always be another quotation mark. Now I don't even know what the norm is anymore
@@madalinatilvan7133 what I see normally is something like this: “We need to get through that door to grab the plans! “The key should be in the garage under the shelf.” I usually only see the quotations end when a character is done talking.
I barely notice typos anymore. What I do notice are printing errors. Once, at the public library, I searched for a specific book and found it (I thought) because the cover was right. However, the entire interior was for a different and unrelated book.
I'm still flying high from the time I detected an erroneous date in a footnote within the Penguin edition of Polybius. It's as close as i'll ever get to original scholarship ;)
When a quote extends between paragraphs the quotation is left unclosed to indicate that same speaker is continuing. Not a typo. Surprised you never noticed that.
Or as I’ve learned sometimes it’s cultural. Quotation rules in UK vs US are switched for double vs single quotation usage. It felt so wrong the first time I came across it.
I was shocked to see a couple of typos in the ASOIAF books, they weren't many, but I suppose that in such huge books a couple of mistakes will get past George and his editors
Interesting. I am planning on reading that book later this year. I wonder if I will notice the same thing. Although I have a new(ish) edition so most, or all, of the typos might have been fixed already
I had a friend in London who is guide and historian and got help from him in writing a series set during Lionheart/John period. His partner, from Canada, is an editor. She decided to write a book set off of the Arthurian legend. When it was time to release it (self-published), I asked him if it was edited, he told me that is was her job so she knew what she was doing. I got an autographed copy and read it. It was in two parts...the first was about 25 pages, then she just jumped ahead in part two. I will be honest in that she had some really good ideas and it could have been interesting. I wrote and told my friend that it should have been edited. In the first place, Part 1 had background for the main character but was too short. She should have written the second part as a stand alone and integrated part one into the story as flashbacks which would, in this case, fit in beautifully. Or fleshed out Part 1 and made it a longer book. Or even a two book series. The worse thing was the typos. Every page. Every typo imaginable. On one page, their were 15 typos on the top half! Sadly, I had to say this in the reviews and was attacked by him and friends. (Several people thanked for explaining this and now it made sense. Esp the 'parts' and they felt I was right because the first part was getting interesting.) It all stopped quickly, as what I reviewed was pulled and replaced by an edited version which was better. The point is, although I see his posts on the same groups we belong to, he has not spoken to me and has blocked me all over. This has been about 20 years now and he still feels I did the wrong thing. The main thing that was pointed out to me about the typo review was that all books put out by real publishing companies have at least on typo in them. Okay...not true. However, I did find one the other day and just ignored it. Life isn't perfect. I know, I'm 79. When cozy mysteries started, they were new and good. Then everyone started writing them and, again, typos galore. Self-published of course. I still check the reviews to see if anyone complains about typos and grammar/spelling (!!) errors. And so it goes...
@josem552 I am reading The Rythm of War rn and have to say, typos and printing errors are two of the biggest reasons why Brandon Sanderson is Brandon Sanderson
Have a few times found a typo in a traditionally published book. Used to work at a library, and a former coworker and good friend there experienced similar. Great video. Yay book needs- *nerds!*
Interesting, you are not the first person to bring up Sanderson in the comments. I guess if you pump out a ton of books like he does, there are bound to be some typos

Found a typo in an old dictionary once, and about died laughing at the sheer irony 😂.
And then you realize you're dumb and the 'typo' was supposed to mean something entirely different. (speaking from experience)

I realised that I had been spelling a word wrong my whole life because of this

Same. I got a penguin book recently and I got furious to see typos from a reputed publisher.
THIS IS CALLED QUALITY CONTENT -

Wow how does something like that even happen? And how is it not discovered by someone working there?

😂 it feels so good though! The next scene is when we rest to figure out if there’s somebody to email so we can get a job doing this.
Really callin me out with that one...
lol
That you raise me up reference caused me to burst out into song in my room at 3 am for a solid 2 or so minutes, (the rest of the song.)

I totally relate
Maybe the whole rest of the book is indeed supposed to be inside quotation marks,
I always wonder if I should e-mail them.
I found one in the book I'm reading, so I'm lowering my review on Storygraph.
I found your channel and watched almost everyhing! Keep it up!
Thank you!

yes, it feels amazing for some reason, lol
