Ask An Editor

Do you have a question about the language or how to use it to communicate in writing? Ask us. We'll answer ALMOST right away. Communications Nova Scotia's editors are offering this free service to anyone in the Nova Scotia provincial government who writes.

While we're particularly interested in answering plain language questions, we're also knowledgable about (and hold strong opinions about) grammar, punctuation, usage, and syntax.

Also, if you're interested in the state of the art of plain language around the world, let us know and we'll keep you up to date.
