Most common transcriber errors: Transposed text (where text is placed in the

wrong order) Wrong words used Missing words (text isn’t verbatim, especially

critical in doing outside and archival work) Misspellings (do not rely on Word’s

dictionary) Missing auditory cues (all cues relevant to

the text should be included) Frequent problems with contractions,

hyphenations, compound words, homonyms Verbs are in the wrong tense
