Sic is a Latin word meaning "thus", "so", "as such", or "in such a manner".

While writing, sic is placed within square brackets and usually italicized  [sic] . It is used to indicate that quoted material has been reporduced verbatim to include incorrect or unusual spelling, phrases or punctuation from the original source and is not a transcription error.

  • Example: Andrea said she would chuse [sic] any of them.
